Zerega Avenue is a local station on the IRT Pelham Line of the New York City Subway. Located at Zerega Avenue and Westchester Avenue in the Bronx, it is served by the 6 train at all times except weekdays in the peak direction, when the <6> train takes over.
This elevated station has three tracks and two side platforms. The center track is not used in regular service.
It resembles other elevated stations along the line: it has wood mezzanines and no windscreens along the platform edges.
From July 5, 2014 to April 27, 2015, as part of a $109 million rebuilding project at five Pelham Line stations, this station, along with Buhre Avenue, was closed for station rehabilitation work.
The station's only exit is a mezzanine beneath the tracks. Outside fare control, stairs lead to the northeast and southwest corners of Westchester Avenue and Zerega Avenue.
