NJT between NY and Newark Penn suspended

See it on TV? Check here.   Eyewitness NewsNEW YORK (WABC) -- New Jersey Transit train service between New York and Newark Penn Stations is suspended in both directions because of an issue with the Portal Bridge.

The bridge, which carries trains over the Hackensack River, is stuck in the open position.

The bridge was opened at 8:55 p.m. Wednesday for marine traffic.

They attempted to close it at 9:20 p.m. but it got stuck.

There is no estimate of restoration time, so this could be an issue for the Thursday morning rush.

Midtown Direct trains are diverted into and out of Hoboken Terminal. NJT tickets and passes accepted on PATH, NJT Bus and Private Carrier buses to/from Port Authority Bus Terminal.
