The Hoboken Path station will close for almost an entire month early next year, officials announced.
The first of 72 new PATH railcars enters Hoboken terminal PATH station in Hoboken, New Jersey in this April 13, 2023 file photo.The station will close at 11:59 p.m. on Jan. 30, 2025 and is expected to reopen at 5 a.m. on Feb. 25, 2025, officials said.
“The full station closure enables the agency to complete track and station work on an expedited basis that would otherwise necessitate severe schedule reductions and service suspensions repetitively over a prolonged period,” officials said in a Thursday statement announcing the closure. Other improvements to the station include refurbishing the concrete platform surface at the station and replacing four stairways between the mezzanine and platform levels, officials said.
Had the agency decided to complete the projects without the extended closure, weekend train service would have been completely shut down for at least four weekends to complete interlocking and track replacements, another 50 consecutive days of limited capacity at the station due to reduced track capacity, and additional disruptions to weekend service for almost a year was expected, officials said.
