NEW YORK, NY – JUNE 15: People walk through the Grand Central-42 Street shuttle subway station on June 15, 2023, in New York City.
Looking to get back and forth from Grand Central to Times Square during this busy week for New York City tourism? Don't rely on the subway shuttle.
Starting Tuesday and lasting through Friday, those looking for a quick way to go between the east and west sides of midtown Manhattan will have to look beyond the quickest subway option, as there will be no 42nd Street shuttle service through Fri., Dec. 29, the MTA announced.
The transit agency said passengers should expect service changes while crews install wireless technology in tunnels.
