Attention PATH riders, track construction and repairs will lead to service alterations this weekend.
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey announced that due to critical work on PATH tracks, it will suspend service between the Harrison and Journal Square stations in both directions – from 11:59 p.m. Sept. 19 through 5 a.m. Sept. 22.
This marks the second of six weekends this fall with service suspended between Harrison and JSQ, including:
- Sept. 20–21 11:59 p.m. Friday – 5 a.m. Monday
- Oct. 4–5, Oct. 25–26 11:59 p.m. Fridays – 5 a.m. Mondays
- Oct. 11–12, Nov. 1–2 2:30 a.m. Saturdays – 5 a.m. Mondays
During the service outages, PATH will provide free shuttle buses between Harrison and JSQ as well as between Newark-Penn Station and JSQ.
Key things to know:
- PATH will use outage periods to install and test four switches to enhance the system
- PATH service will operate between Newark-Penn Station and Harrison, the JSQ-WTC line, and the JSQ-33 St. via HOB line
- Weekday service will not be affected
- Fall weekend outages are scheduled concurrently with existing weekend service adjustments for New Jersey-bound trains on the 33 St-JSQ via HOB line, which began in June
