LIRR Service from Ronkonkoma to Greenport Suspended Until Further Notice
With over a foot of snow expected, service reductions and cancellations expected.
The Long Island Rail Road has suspended train service between Greenport and Ronkonkoma starting Wednesday morning.
"It is accurate to say that there will be no service east of Ronkonkoma and no service east of Speonk after this evening's PM rush," said Sal Arena, spokesman for the LIRR. "That means no train service until further notice."
The LIRR said it would continually evaluate the impact of the storm on and urged customers to consult the MTA’s website for the latest updates on branches that may be affect by cancellations. Patch will also keep readers updated.
