Just as the weather begins to take a chilly turn, it looks like [construction and closures on the northbound Cortelyou, Beverley, and Parkside subway station platforms](/blog/transportation/q-line-overhaul-service-changes-start-july-8) is reaching completion.

We first learned at [September’s Community Board 14 monthly meeting](/blog/politics/notes-from-the-cb14-monthly-meeting-7) that the **northbound platform rehab was scheduled for an early or mid-November wrap up**, and that southbound platform construction would begin in January.

However, at the suggestion of neighbor Adelia, we got in touch with [Community Board 14](http://www.cb14brooklyn.com/?ref=bklyner.com) and a spokesman for the MTA–both of whom have confirmed that **construction on southbound platforms will actually begin no earlier than February 8, 2014**.

So, there’s some good news to start your morning! With all subway platforms functional through December and January, you won’t be taking nearly as many long, cold walks this winter as you might have imagined.
