Stupid question: is there enough space for double tracking the Meadowlands rail line?

it is double track

they should have the display on the 85 working for AD

I've been telling people in jersey city that it'll be quicker to get the 85. the 2 bus is good but that a long ride.

there is also the 125 and 88/C to union city for the 160

u can always take path from WTC/33rd to hoboken for the 85 to AD or journal sq for the or 88/C/125 to union city for 160 2 to secaucus for train or bus

NJ Transit’s new 355 express bus to American Dream retail and entertainment complex will cost adults a $9 fare in each direction or $18 round trip, said Jim Smith, a spokesman. Football fans who ride the 351 Coach USA bus between New York and MetLife Stadium pay a $14 round trip fare for the same 20-minute trip.

makes sense since busses to/from NY is higher than local fares

The LED signs on the 85 to american dream blank out but everything else still work

That is going to be pretty pricey 

 

78 to Secaucus is $3.15 from Penn Station 

 

Northeast Corridor from Penn Station to Secaucus is $4.25

 

And we don't know yet how much it would cost on the 356 though if I had to guess then it might be similar to either of the two I mentioned

plus the 78 is extremely limited too

I said the same thing for Jersey City/Journal Square. I mean, the 85 extended to the mall is good, but I know it going to be packed to the mall and from the mall. It gets packed when I go to Walmart with the workers and shoppers.

As a college student who is in his third year of college, I agree that they should have a college student card as well. This would help students save on transportation costs, especially if they have to go to work directly after school as well. I could see CUNY Service Corps folks (such as myself when I start) taking advantage of it.

For pricing, I suggest that the purchase price of the cards be at $1.00 to make it affordable for college students as well. From there, it’s unlimited rides for the day.

not gonna happen.

From what ive seen so far there is a program for the 85 to American dream because the nabi's have the side speakers but the display doesnt show so some busses still have Secaucus Harmon Meadow

I’ve read that article on Facebook yesterday and I just shook my head lol.

I still favor my proposal from that other thread in this site for both sides of the 14th Street Tube to be shut down every weekend until everything inside is completely replaced like the Montague Street Tube. Weekday and weekday overnight  service runs as is. During this time, the  runs into Midtown at all times except weekday overnights.

If there’s any weekend GOs requiring the Cranberry Street Tube to be closed, then they can instead shut down the  and  in both directions between Canal Street and Jay Street, with the  making local stops in Brooklyn replacing the , which would be cut back to WTC  platform. This way, 6th Avenue in general can still have 18 tph with the combined  all without cutting one of them to fit the .

What more can I say lol.

Clark and Cran. was closed weekends not Montague, but instead of the E platform why not the A and C chambers platform like last time

Today is the day of the 85, 703 and 772 route change but busses will temporarily start/end at Lot G of MetLife 

NJ TRANSIT Initial Transportation Service to American Dream - Beginning Saturday, August 31, 2019

August 29, 2019

Initial service to include Express Buses from Port Authority Bus Terminal and Secaucus Junction to American Dream, as well as Expanded Local Service

As part of the initial phase of service to American Dream, NJ TRANSIT will operate express bus service from New York City, as well as an express bus service from Secaucus beginning on opening day, October 25, and expand three local bus routes, beginning on August 31, all on a pilot basis.

A new bus route, the No. 355, will operate daily express service from the Port Authority Bus Terminal (PABT) to the American Dream every 30 minutes. 

Bus Route No. 356 will operate daily express service from Secaucus Junction to American Dream every 30 minutes. 

To provide transportation options for American Dream employees prior to the opening, three local bus routes – the Route No. 85, which operates from Hoboken/Union City to Secaucus; Route No. 703, which operates from Paterson/Passaic to East Rutherford; and Route No. 772, which operates from Hackensack to the Meadowlands – will expand their operating hours and include stops at American Dream beginning on Saturday, August 31. These three bus lines initially will stop at the Racetrack at the Meadowlands until completion of the dedicated hub at American Dream and will continue operations once opened.  

Additionally, Route No. 772 will be expanding to include Saturday and Sunday service. NJ TRANSIT will implement the expanded weeknight service and new weekend service effective August 31. 

To utilize Route No. 356 express bus service from Secaucus Junction customers may travel on any rail line that serves Secaucus Junction or any of the five NJ TRANSIT bus routes that serve Secaucus Junction and transfer to Route No. 356 express bus for direct service to American Dream. They are: 

No. 2, Journal Square to Secaucus

No. 78, Newark to Secaucus

No. 124, PABT to Secaucus-Harmon Cove

No. 129, PABT to Secaucus

No. 329, Harmon Cove to Secaucus

Rail service will be added once the rail system is resilient enough that doing so won’t adversely affect NJ TRANSIT commuters.

Bus fare information from PABT and Secaucus to American Dream, schedules and gate departure information will be determined and announced as the opening date gets closer.  NJ TRANSIT Initial Transportation Service to American Dream - Beginning Saturday, August 31, 2019

NJ TRANSIT will conduct public hearings to receive comments on the new weeknight and weekend service on Route No. 772 and the new express bus service, Route No. 355, to/from the PABT.  Prior to the public hearings, these services will be implemented on a pilot basis to allow for the collection of public comments.  These comments will be considered when the final decision is made to make the expanded service permanent. Dates, times and locations of the public hearings will be forthcoming.

For more information and language assistance, please call NJ TRANSIT Customer Service at (973) 275-5555 between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. daily.
