NJ Transit endure more delays during Friday morning commute
NEW YORK - NJ Transit commuters were met with more major delays during the Friday morning commute.
This time, the delays were due to maintenance on the Amtrak tracks.
Trains in and out of Penn Station were delayed for as much as 50 minutes, with tickets and passes being cross-honored by NJ Transit buses, private carriers, and PATH at Newark Penn Station, Hoboken Terminal, and 33rd Street.
This follows several days of delays for both Amtrak and NJ Transit trains, causing all travel in the area to be temporarily stopped as crews worked to resolve the issue.
Several riders have taken to X (formally Twitter), to voice their frustration about not being notified of the delays sooner. "NJ Transit commuters deserve better," one commuter said.
