Getting around New York City is going to be a lot tougher for many residents of Sunnyside and Woodside this weekend.

No. 7 train service between 34th Street-Hudson Yards and Queensboro Plaza will be suspended from 12:15 am Saturday through 4:30 am Monday, according to the MTA.

In addition, there will be no local service between 61st Street/Woodside and Queens Plaza on the Manhattan-bound side.

Therefore, Manhattan-bound residents are advised to take the 7 train to the 74th Street/Roosevelt Ave. stop and then take the E, F, or R trains in order to get into the City.

For Long Island City residents, there will be shuttle buses taking commuters from Vernon Blvd to Queensboro Plaza, where they will be able to get on the N or R train.
