Every "letter" line but the L will forever run slower on weekends - because
of repair work NYC Transit says will never end.
Transit officials said A, D, F, G, J, M, N, Q and R trains will be spaced every 10 minutes instead of every eight.
The E line, the most crowded, will run every 7½ to 10 minutes, depending on the time of day.
The slowdowns are the result of construction and repairs needed to "keep a state of good repair," NYCT spokesman Paul Fleuranges said yesterday.
Agency President Howard Roberts said the slowdown will be "permanent."
"Construction," right. Because the MTA is staffed by mega-quick pixies who jump on the tracks and do work when every train passes, and the mega-quick pixie union has demanded an extra three minutes per shift for lunch.
