NEW YORK – Metro-North East of Hudson schedules will be changed on April 3 to improve on-time performance during peak travel periods, support track and infrastructure work and address customer requests, the railroad announced.
Certain morning and evening rush hour trains on the Hudson, Harlem and New Haven lines will be adjusted by between one and four minutes. The adjustments will decrease train dwell time at stations, relieve congestion, increase train speed, help prevent the cascading impact of minor delays and improve on-time performance, officials said.
“Refining the schedule allows us to continue to improve upon train reliability, giving our customers service that they can count on,” said Metro-North President Joseph Giulietti.
The new schedule change will also mean a quieter ride for more Metro-North customers. Starting on April 4, two quiet cars will be available on every weekday train, both rush hour and non-rush hour.
