More L and M Subway Service This Fall

The MTA announced that it’s increasing both L and M train service this fall, good news especially for Ridgewood and Forest Hills straphangers. The Queens Courier reported these specific improvements:

On Saturday L train service will be increased a total of 33 round trips between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m.
On Sunday L train services will be increased a total of 23 round trips between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m.
Weekday evening L service will be increased a total of 3 round trips
Weekday M service will increase one round trip – one northbound trip in the morning and one southbound trip in the late afternoon

The MTA will also increase the M line service on Forest Hills-bound weekday morning trains and Metropolitan Avenue-bound weekday afternoon trains. Nice! These service improvements will set the MTA back $1,700,000 annually.
