In preparation for the Patterson bridge-replacement project, the MTA Metro-North Railroad is advising customers that crews will continue to work on the track-surfacing of the Upper Harlem Line between Wassaic and Southeast from Tuesday, April 23, through Thursday, April 25.
This portion of the replacement includes adding stone in order to raise the existing track so that it meets the profile of the new bridges.
