NYC subway closing overnight

[redbird]

This makes sense, but seems weird nonetheless: starting May 7th, the New York City subways will be closed for cleaning from 1 to 5 a.m. every day.

There's an "essential connector" replacement service, for which would-be passengers have to show ID that they are working in essential jobs. The bus system will also be running overnight.

It does make sense, of a distressing and necessary kind.
