Transit Alert: {Hoboken PATH} to Close Weekends

Following the introduction of Mayor Zimmer’s 2017 budget, it has been announced that the Hoboken PATH station will be closed on weekends to undergo “significant and necessary structural improvements,” beginning April 15. The exact completion date is unknown at this time, but expected to last until November 2017.

The PATH station will close at 9pm on Friday nights and reopen on Monday mornings at 5am. As many Hoboken residents rely on the PATH for regular travel to and from New York City, here are some alternative options:

Bus

Catch the 126 from the Hoboken Terminal or at one of its pick-up points along Washington Street–it will bring you to New York Port Authority.

Ferry

Hop on the ferry from 14th Street and it will drop you off across the river at West 39th Street in Manhattan.

Train

You can get a train to New York City from the Hoboken Terminal–but you’ll have to ride to Secaucus first and transfer over to a Manhattan-bound train, which will take you into Penn Station.

Give Up

Quit your job. Tell your NYC pals you won’t be making it to brunch until 2018. Sell your concert tickets. Because what is life without easy access to and from Manhattan?

You should also give up on making it through this day without getting duped.
