NEW YORK -- A water main break in midtown Manhattan has disrupted subway service along Sixth Avenue from midtown to the West Village.

Uptown and downtown B, D, F, and V trains are skipping all stops between W. Fourth Street and 59th Street. Those trains are running along the Eighth Avenue line.

A New York City Transit official said the break occurred at 11:28 a.m. at 42nd Street and Sixth Avenue.

Workers are currently trying to fix the problem.

Yup I was just coming on to post that, I got home about 1/2 an hour ago (3pm) and I left school (59th and 10th) at 1 pm.

I hope it doesn't take anyone else as long as it took me to get home.

I had to take the B from 59th/Columbus Circle to 42nd St to jump on the E to get home.
