The Metropolitan Transportation Authority says service has resumed and a Manhattan subway station reopened following a smoke incident at a substation earlier today.
The B, D, E subway station at 53rd Street and Seventh Avenue was closed for more than two hours this afternoon after cables at a nearby substation began smoking.
Nothing actually caught fire and no injuries were reported.
According to witnesses, heavy smoke conditions were visible on Seventh Avenue.
As of this hour, most service has been restored with residual delays on the Sixth Avenue and A lines, as well as the number 4, 5 and 6 lines at 14th Street Union Square.
Crews are working to repair the damage.
