PATH to keep weekend trains away from World Trade Center hub construction work


advertisement


Beginning April 9, the Port Authority Trans-Hudson (PATH) will discontinue direct-train weekend service between Hoboken, N.J., and the World Trade Center (WTC) site to avoid interfering with construction of the new WTC rail terminal in lower Manhattan.

Weekend passengers traveling between the two stations will have to transfer at the Grove Street Station to complete their trip. PATH will begin distributing new timetables at all stations on Sunday.

PATH parent the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey is building the $2.2 billion World Trade Center Transportation Hub, which will replace a temporary PATH station that opened in 2003 and serve more than 80,000 passengers daily.
