The Metropolitan Transit Authority announced Tuesday that buses will replace trains on the Long Island Railroad’s Port Washington line for a 12-hour period this Sunday, Nov. 15.
Due to track welding work in Manhasset, service along the Port Washington line will be provided by buses that will run every hour — a reduction in the usual train schedule, which runs every half hour, according to an MTA press release.
Work is expected to begin at 12:48 a.m., the release said, and will end at 12:55 p.m.
Passengers traveling westbound from the Port Washington, Plandome, or Manhasset stations will board buses or vans up to 25 minutes earlier than normal for Great Neck where normal train service will resume, according to the MTA.
