Alexis Wood, Eyewitness NewsNEW YORK (WABC) -- Blast work resumes on the 2nd Avenue Subway Friday for the first time since an explosion damaged property last month. An MTA investigation found a wrong timing sequence and improper blast holes caused the excessive explosion at the 72nd Street construction site.
The agency has initiated new safety procedures, including requiring a superintendent to approve a checklist before each blast.
A double layer of protective mats will also now be used in the shafts.---
