So, did you try to get to Manhattan from Roosevelt Island with no F Train direct service and only one Tram Cabin in service today?
The Roosevelt Island Tram line today to use the one working Tram Cabin while Station Platform work is being done was very long.
The Twitterverse reports:
The line due to a single tram cabin and no F train is ridiculous! Take the @NYCferry people! #rooseveltisland pic.twitter.com/RAiBXa7142FinnYorker (@NYTTYTTYY) September 2, 2017
At about 1:40 PM, the Tram line was down the street almost reaching the Visitors Center Kiosk.
With no F train to Manhattan this Labor Day Weekend , lines are very long for the Roosevelt Island Tram pic.twitter.com/nv2aUuf3AKRoosevelt Islander (@Rooseveltisland) September 2, 2017
The crowd patiently waited for the Tram coming from Manhattan
and the arriving passengers to exit
before hopefully getting on Board the departing Tram to Manhattan. Only about half those on the line were able to get on the incoming Tram – the other half were left behind for the next Tram.
A new transportation option for Roosevelt Island today
was the Astoria Route Ferry service
People should consider taking the ferry. It is right near the tram.Nancy Gordon (@NancyGordon4) September 2, 2017
Were you one of the lucky Roosevelt Islanders who used the Ferry today?
