What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Phase two of the Portal Bridge cutover began on October 1, 2026, affecting transit operations involving Hoboken and Secaucus. The work requires trains to run on a single track between Newark and Secaucus, resulting in a limited schedule that runs until November 15th. This phase involves fewer trains into and out of Penn Station on weekdays, and some lines will require riders to transfer in Hoboken.
