Bad news for those attending the fest...

Shuttle buses replace trains between Lorimer St and Broadway Junction
Weekend, 12:01 AM Sat to 5 AM Mon, Jan 14 -16 and 21 - 23


Good thing Kevin had an alternate plan just in case that happened.

Ed,

Actually since the L bustitution ends at Broadway Junction, we still have an all-rail alternative that would keep relatively close to the original plan. The L would still be running rail service south of Broadway Junction. So after riding the M to Metropolitan Avenue, we could just backtrack on the M to Broadway/Myrtle, and return east on the J to Broadway Junction.

This would allow us to go with the original plan (except for the aforementioned 4 on the 3 and 5 on the 2) but it would take a little longer since we would use a portion of the M and J lines to bypass the part of the L that is out.
