The PATH train’s Hoboken station will close for nearly one month starting this Thursday, Jan. 30, to allow for major repairs and upgrades.
The station will close at 11:59 p.m. on Thursday and will continue through Feb. 25 as part of the agency’s two-year, $430 million rehabilitation program that includes critical repairs across track and switch infrastructure.
The closure was first announced in October 2024.
During the closure, PATH trains will not stop at the Hoboken station. Passengers traveling to or from Hoboken will need to use alternative transportation, such as the ferry, bus or light rail.
The PATH will provide shuttle buses connecting Hoboken riders to continuing PATH service at Newport and Exchange Place stations.
Other travel alternatives, which PATH said are all ADA-accessible, include:
Cross-honored ferry service:
- Additional peak period service departing every 10 minutes from both Hoboken ferry terminals, the PATH/NJ TRANSIT station terminal and the 14th Street terminal, with service to Manhattan via the Brookfield Place/Battery Park City terminal and via Midtown/West 39 Street terminal.
- Expanded NY Waterway crosstown bus service from Midtown/West 39th Street terminal.
- Extended operating hours until 10 p.m. weekdays and midnight weekends at both Hoboken terminals. There will also be an additional weekend route offering service to Midtown/West 39th Street from both Hoboken terminals.
Bus Service along NJ TRANSIT’s No. 126 Line
- NJ TRANSIT will increase frequency of the No. 126 bus route, connecting Hoboken station with the Midtown Bus Terminal.
Supplemental PATH service:
- Additional PATH trains will serve expected additional passengers at Newport and Exchange Place stations to/from World Trade Center and 33 Street.
Supplemental NJ TRANSIT Hudson-Bergen Light Rail service:
- NJ TRANSIT will provide additional service on the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail weekdays between 6 to 10 a.m. and 3 to 7 p.m., connecting riders to/from continuing PATH service at Newport and Exchange Pl.
PATH advised passengers to allow extra time for their commute during the closure. Additional details on schedules, service frequencies and fares are available on the project website, panynj.gov.
