Work begins this month on the first group of stations that are part of the ongoing Enhanced Station Initiative (ESI) to create new and improved subway stations throughout New York. The R line stations, along 4th Ave. in Brooklyn, will close in both directions for renovations.
New York Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo has directed the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) to use design-build procurement for these renovations. MTA notes that when compared to previous projects using a piecemeal method that allowed limited service at affected stations but stretched the construction timeline, often to several years, the new method should cut construction time and save money. The process will inform future projects planned for Long Island Rail Road and Metro-North Railroad.
