The theater world has responded to the subways before. If the subways are shut down due to a winter storm, the shows are cancelled.
Similarly, I believe they should adapt to the major change in subway track work that was instituted a few months ago. For the past 15+ years I have been taking the subway after a show, the weeknight trackwork (with very limited exceptions) has always started at midnight. Now, a major change has occurred. Due to the crumbling infrastructure, as of approx November 2017, the subway trackwork now starts (with limited exceptions) at 9:30pm/9:45pm. Just look at Tuesday night's trackwork on the MTA website and you'll know what I mean - these are very major service disruptions as of 9:30pm/9:45pm. Total shutdowns of the system are occurring along Queens Blvd (E/F/R), Morningside Heights (#1), Ozone Park (A), and Flatbush (#2) starting 9:30pm Tuesday night. You will need to take a shuttle bus. Manhattan customers will see significant reroutes as well. |
