According to the transit agency, a control tower worker atForest Hills and 71st Street in Queens spotted two of the bothersomeinsects inside around 4:30 p.m. just as rush hour was set to begin. The towerwas evacuated and fumigated, and staff wasnt able to return until around 7:30p.m., MTA President Andy Byford said.
The worker who saw the bugs operates the switch to changelines from local to express, and because no employees were allowed to continueworking at the tower during fumigation, trains on the E, F, M, R and W lineswere delayed and re-routed, according to the MTA.
