  • Coney Island-bound q trains operate via the n line between Atlantic Av-Barclays Ctr and Stillwell Av, non-stop between 59 St and Stillwell Av
  • Manhattan-bound q trains will operate via the d line from Stillwell Av to Atlantic Av-Barclays Ctr, making stops at Bay Pkwy, 62 St-New Utrecht Av, 9 Av and 36 St

Free shuttle buses will continue to replace q trains between Atlantic Av-Barclays Ctr and Prospect Park every weeknight (Monday through Friday), through August 26 from 11:45 p.m. to 5 a.m.

The section of tunnel where the work is taking place is under Prospect Park and the Brooklyn Botanical Garden.
