G Train Service Suspended Through Mid-August for Signal Modernization

G Train Service Disruptions

• ⚠️ G Train service will be suspended between Court Square in Queens and Bedford North 11th Avenue in Brooklyn starting tonight.

• 🚌 Shuttle buses will be provided free of charge for affected riders, running every few minutes along the closed route.

Project Details and Goals

• 🛠️ This shutdown is part of a $368 million project to modernize signals on the century-old subway line.
