New Jersey Transit on April 25 will resume Hudson-Bergen light-rail service at MLK Drive and Garfield Avenue stations following completion of utility work by the Jersey City Municipal Utilities Authority (JCMUA).

The West Side Avenue Branch stations have been closed since June 1, 2019, as JCMUA worked to replace sewer pipes that run directly under the light-rail tracks.

West Side Avenue Station remains closed for early construction work on NJ Transit’s Route 440 extension project, which would extend light-rail service to a new station farther west, NJ Transit officials said in a press release.
