NJ Transit gets $34M to make 5 train stations more accessible

Quote:
For NJ Transit, that means building high level platforms at some stations that will allow passengers in wheelchairs to roll onto trains. With them, people won’t have to climb stairs to get on and off rail cars.

Grants included $18.18 million for two Pascack Valley Line stations at Anderson Street, Hackensack and New Bridge Landing in River Edge. The Bradley Beach Rail Station – on the North Jersey Coast Line - received a $14.51 million grant. And the Chatham and Orange Rail Stations on the Morris & Essex Line were awarded $1.4 million.

The Penn Station LIRR concourse renovations are pretty much done, BTW. It looks great. Huge improvement. Now we just need all the retail to open up.

^ That's the best RFW video of the ESA tunnels I've seen yet. Still so frustrating to see these signal delays causing trains to crawl out of them.

Governor Lamont Announces Start of Construction on the Walk Bridge Replacement Project in Norwalk

Quote:
Posted on May 12, 2023



(NORWALK, CT) – Governor Ned Lamont and Transportation Commissioner Garrett Eucalitto today announced that the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is starting construction on the Norwalk River Railroad (Walk) Bridge Replacement Project in Norwalk.

Originally built in 1896, the Walk Bridge is a four-track railroad bridge that spans the Norwalk River and serves as a critical link on the Northeast Corridor, connecting major cities such as Boston, New York, and Washington, D.C. It is one of the oldest movable bridges in the region, and in recent years it has shown its age, failing to close on several occasions and significantly disrupting travel on the New Haven Line, the busiest rail line in the country.

Having outlived its useful life, federal and state officials determined the necessity to replace the bridge and designed a new one that is focused on enhancing the safety, reliability, and ease of travel throughout Norwalk and beyond with vital improvements and upgrades to the railroad infrastructure. This bridge replacement project promotes economic development through infrastructure investment, the protection of potential up-river development, and reduced roadway congestion.

The new bridge will be a redundant structure with two independent, movable spans that are designed and constructed to be resilient and sustainable for extreme weather events. When completed, a speed restriction over the bridge will be eliminated, allowing for trains to travel at speeds that are 15 miles per hour faster.

The $925 million construction project is approximately 80% federally funded and 20% state funded. It is expected to be completed in 2029.
