Hudson-Bergen Light Rail Suspended Due to Ice

NJ Transit said light rail service on the Hudson Bergen line is suspended tonight due to icing on the tracks and overhead wires, and may be suspended on Tuesday if conditions don’t improve.

A winter storm dumped up to 11 inches of snow, sleet and freezing rain on parts of North Jersey and the National Weather Service recently issued a “flash freeze” warning that temperatures would suddenly drop and cause road surfaces to turn into skating rinks.

NJ Transit said it is cross honoring tickets throughout the system, meaning bus riders can use their passes to New York on NJ Transit trains and vice versa.

Limited shuttle bus service is available along select routes of the light rail, including:

8th street to/from Liberty State Park

Liberty State Park to/from Westside Avenue

Liberty State Park to/from Newport

Newport to/from Hoboken

Newport to/from Tonnelle Avenue
