The Hub NY: Columbus Day Commute

Going into NYC for work or fun?

Metro North is running a regular, weekday schedule for those who must work.

For the fortunate ones who can go into the city for pleasure here's a list of subway stops that will get you to the Columbus Day Parade.

Today, try the MTA's  webpage "The Weekender" which you can find starting Friday afternoons. It has details of weekend maintenance & construction work on the subways—on a handy interactive map.

In local construction, the big action is in Putnam County on I-84.

Starting Monday, it's down to one lane in both directions between I-684 and Route 121 in Southeast. Bridge repairs will go through Thursday between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.

Then there's ramp work at Exit 20 Monday-Friday in Southeast that will include closures, mostly at night (weather permitting).

In Brewster on Monday, Route 22 will be down to one lane of alternating traffic due to crack sealing.

Also in Southeast, there will be east- and westbound lane closures on Route 6 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m.

In Rockland County, the huge Route 59 project in Clarkstown continues.

Westchester County has a few things going on everywhere.

Assume work somewhere on every parkway and interstate. In addition:

The northbound right lane on Route 9 in Peekskill will be closed 9 a.m.-3 p.m. on Oct. 14.

Route 9 at the junction of 9A on the Ossining-Croton border will have one lane blocked Oct. 11.

Road work and lane closures continue on Route 9A in Cortlandt between Crugers Station Road and Trinity Avenue.

On Tuesday, expect lane closures on Route 9 in Dobbs Ferry between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.

A big part of the problem is that the teachers' expectations about what supplies are necessary haveRead More become so extreme. When my kids were in school in Tarrytown, we would get a list at the beginning of every school year of the supplies we needed to buy. The parents were asked to buy a separate looseleaf binder for every single class our kids were taking and, for some classes, they asked for a looseleaf AND a spiral notebook. When I was in school, each kid had ONE looseleaf and we separated classes with dividers. Having SIX or seven loose leafs adds to backpack weight and costs a lot of money. My kids supply bills were often close to $100 apiece. The teachers have bought into this idea that all of these supplies are necessary and they are not. I'm not surprised that Staples is offering "rewards programs." Their advertising and marketing efforts have convinced the teachers that you must have a package of 12 red correcting pens, per child.
