Expect delays on the LIRR Montauk Branch week of 3/12/13 …Greeting Hamptons Mouthpiece readers…Last week we were informed that County Road 39 would be closed in Southampton in the evenings for 2-3 days March 12-15th 2013 7pm-5am, for road repair. The LIRR released  this information on their website that there would be some changes on the Montauk branch and buses will replace trains from Speonk to Montauk for 72 Hours from Tuesday, March 12 thru Friday, March 15, 2013, for Bridge Rehab Work . The Latest Phase of $22.4M Project of rehabilitation of the three east end Bridges which includes AM & PM Peak Outages.

With train service suspended along this segment of the Montauk Branch, the LIRR will take advantage of the track time to reconstruct the railroad crossing on Montauk Highway near Flying Point Road to accommodate future plans of the Town of Southampton to widen Montauk Highway. As a result, Montauk Highway will be closed to vehicular traffic at that juncture on Tuesday, March 12 and Wednesday, March 13.

Add 40 minutes to your commute in the morning for commuters from Montauk-Speonk if you need to take to bus that will be replacing the trains this week or you can carpool with some of your train buddies and drive to Speonk in the morning to avoid this craziness. Here is your schedule for this week on the Montauk branch.
