The Long Island Rail Road will be replacing bridge timbers on the

- Each weekend, Bayview Avenue will be closed from starting on Friday at 11 p.m. through Monday at 1 a.m.
- During these weekends, buses and vans will replace east and westbound trains between Port Washington and Great Neck.
In addition, NorthShoreAlert, the mass communication system for the peninsula reports that westbound trains will board 25 minutes earlier than normal train time.
