I already mentioned that there will be an outage next month for the weekend of August 24th-25th. That will be to install the Covert Avenue bridge, along with the 2nd and 3rd Avenue portions as well. I'm not sure if the Railroad Avenue segment is included with the bridge installation this weekend.
Another outage is expected in August, a few weeks before Covert Avenue. There will be no service West of Mineola, and certain branches East of Jamaica. The Main Line will be out for sure, but I'm not sure if the Hempstead Branch will be in service (I say no). What they will be doing is extending the bridge over South Tyson Avenue at Floral Park for the third track between the EB track on the Main Line, and the WB track on the Hempstead Branch. Viaduct supports have been erected to extend the viaduct, and this new bridge will widen the viaduct.
