TROUBLE ON THE F-TRAIN: TELL JEN

Jen at Kensington Blog is concerned about slow service on the F-train casued by the Culver Viaduct rehabilitation.  She seems to have the ear of a New York City Transit rep by the name of Andrew Inglesby and is collecting complaints from other riders on the comment section of her blog. Talk about a good use of a comment section.  Go Jen.

After a frustrating and slow F train ride to 14th Street on Saturday
I decided to email the representative (Andrew.Inglesby@nyct.com) I met
at Bill de Blasio’s town hall meeting back on March 29th. I asked
Andrew about the announcement he had eluded to at the meeting and who I
should contact about F train service issues… Here’s what I received:

"We should be informing the affected elected officials and Community Board 6 about the Culver Viaduct rehabilitation,
which will affect subway service from Smith-9th Street to Church
Avenue, by the end of this year. The construction project’s contract
will be awarded in August 2008 but we always try to let the affected
community know as far in advance as possible.

You can let me know about any problems on the F train in the interim".
