Riders using the 14 St station need to adjust their boarding locations due to temporary service modifications, transit officials said.

Operational Change Affects Station Access

The service modification requires all passengers to board from a single track instead of the station's normal configuration, according to the transit agency. Officials said the temporary change affects how riders access the station and where they wait for trains. The agency didn't provide details about what prompted the operational adjustment or whether similar modifications are planned for other stations. Transit systems typically implement single-track operations during maintenance work, emergency repairs, or infrastructure upgrades.

Limited Details on Scope and Duration

The alert indicates service will return to normal operations at 5:00 AM, though officials didn't specify which date that refers to or how long the modification has been in effect. Transit officials said passengers should use entrances on the west side of 6th Avenue to access the NJ-bound track. The agency hasn't released information about how many riders are affected by the change or what alternative service options might be available. Officials didn't provide estimates for potential delays or additional travel time riders should expect.

Officials didn't say whether they'll provide advance notice if similar service changes are needed in the future.
