Transportation, Trash, And More From Thursday’s Winter Storm

Oh, look. It’s snowing.

Today is going to be quite a mess. The forecast is calling for snow, sleet, rain, and then more snow to top off all the slush. Here’s what you need to know:

NYC Public schools are open on Thursday, but all field trips are cancelled.

Alternate side parking is suspended through Monday, February 17. Meters are still in effect, though, so don’t forget to feed the Muni.

Garbage and recycling collection is delayed, as workers continue snow removal operations around the city. DSNY asks residents to remove any snow from garbage that is already out, and to make sure that bags are placed in a spot that is “accessible to sanitation workers.”

Definitely give yourself some travel cushion today, as there are a number of delays on area subways:

Due to switch problems in Av X Yard, F trains are running with delays in both directions.

Due to track maintenance at Union St, the following service changes are in effect: Northbound D trains are running local from 36 St (Brooklyn) to Atlantic Av-Barclays Ctr. Northbound N trains are running local from 59 St (Brooklyn) to Atlantic Av-Barclays Ctr.

Due to mechanical problems at 125 St, northbound A and D trains are running with delays.

When we went out around 7am, there were a lot of icy patches hidden underneath the snow, so watch your step when hitting the streets today.
