Current Project

New Hyde Park Substation Replacement

The New Hyde Park substation will be replaced to accommodate the additional third track on the Main Line.

Project Overview

The New Hyde Park substation, located at Third Avenue and South 9th Street in New Hyde Park, will be replaced as part of the LIRR Expansion Project from Floral Park to Hicksville. This substation is approximately 40 years old and nearing the end of its operational life. It is imperative that the New Hyde Park substation is replaced to accommodate the additional third track and support future growth of the LIRR. New Hyde Park substation replacement is part of a larger initiative to enhance service reliability and support system expansion throughout the LIRR and ultimately support the growth and development of Long Island.
