There's a new subway service alert riders traveling between Queens and Manhattan should know.
N and 7 train service between the two boroughs will be suspended all weekend, starting Saturday at 12:01 a.m. and going until Monday at 4 a.m.
7 trains will not run between 74th Street-Broadway and 34th Street-Hudson Yards. N trains will run between Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue and 57th Street-7th Avenue, and via the Q line to/from 96th Street.
The MTA said the weekend closure is a part of ongoing work on the Queensboro Plaza accessibility project. Crews are working on elevators and performing other upgrades at the station.
