NJ Transit to temporarily operate on modified train schedule Feb. 15-Mar. 14 for Portal Bridge work

From NJ Transit.

NJ Transit will temporarily operate on a modified train schedule from Feb. 15 to Mar. 14 as Amtrak works on the Portal North Bridge. The bridge will replace the 114-year-old swing bridge over the Hackensack River, and is meant to improve long-term reliability and capacity along the Northeast Corridor. Trains will only operate on a single track between Newark and Secaucus, and there will be less trains to New York Penn Station on weekdays on the Northeast Corridor and the North Jersey Coast Line. There will be no Midtown Direct train service to New York Penn Station on weekdays along the Morristown Line, Gladstone Branch, and the Montclair-Boonton Line. All train schedules are available online.
