Planned work will be impacting just about everyone this weekend, with the L line and shuttles the only lines to not have service changes. The 2 and the 5 lines are masquerading as one another for considerable hunks of track, and the A, C, E, are an absolute mess. To boot, MetroCard vending machines will only be accepting cash from 12:01am to 6am Saturday morning, so make sure to not be out of swipes if you go out Friday night.

2 trains replace weekend 5 service between Dyre Av and E 180 St. Downtown 2 trains skip 86 St and 79 St and uptown 2 trains run express from 3 Av-149 St to E 180 St.
