Summer is officially here, and big things are happening this weekend. If you're heading to the annual NYC Pride March on Sunday, public transit is the best way to get there; several subway lines and the LIRR are conveniently located near the start of the parade route.

No matter what you have planned for the weekend, we're here to help you get around. For more details on how service will be affected across all modes of transit, check out our Planned Work tool and search for your subway, bus, or rail line.  

These service changes are subject to change, so check the MTA homepage before heading out; it's where you'll find up-to-the-minute information on subway, bus, and rail service.
