Downtown Jersey City + Hoboken, in another life.

Pumpkin train kind of day 🎃🍁🍂🛤️

May's falling debris incidents helped spur $300 M in three projects on at Trans-Manhattan Expressway and 2 on the GWB www.nj.com/news/2026/10...

Exciting news out via @betterblocksnj.bsky.social about a needed new proposed Hudson Bergen Light Rail station in a part of Jersey City that’s sprouted with development. betterblocksnj.org/2026/10/21/n...

BREAKING WSJ: Elon Musk ordered the slowdown of the military-grade version of Starlink that Ukraine relied on.

Calling the Bay Area “highly car-dependent,” as this and other articles do www.motherjones.com/politics/202... is funny because the SF urban area has the 2nd highest per capita transit ridership among big urban areas in the nation (San Jose is #20/48) www.thetransportpolitic.com/databook/us-...

A classic in the genre of Friday night news dumps

As someone who used to run over this bridge a lot, happy to see this.

Trump’s new press secretary, Katie Zacharia, has been fired, after less than a week on the job, NYT reports

Technically, they'll meet the Governor's deadline to rollout new trains, if the cars pass NJT and federal testing, but not all are being deployed. nj.com/news/2026/10...

I have a feeling this will go the same way of the Point Pleasant ferry… www.nj.com/news/2026/10...

The Teterboro Airport expansion plan is moving ahead. The plan will disturb 22 acres, half of which are wetlands. Those opposed say this will worsen flooding in the area; the Port Authority says they are mindful of balancing infrastructure and resiliency.

Fall is the Super Bowl for Metro North’s Hudson Line 🚞🍂🍁

The Hudson-Bergen Light Rail shows just how transformative public transit can be. But for too long, riders have had to put up with delayed trains, overcrowded platforms, and long-promised expansions that have yet to become reality. Our communities deserve better.

A great time to revisit the Bergen BRT idea if we’re going to keep adding more residential in some of these estbalished corridors. jerseydigs.com/the-bergen-c...

Southwest is reportedly leaning towards a fleet of "dozens" of Boeing 787s to launch long-haul flights, reports @reuters.com

Hurricane Isaias has strengthened into a Category 2 storm.

🎶🎵 it’s the holiday season…🎄🎶🎵

“New York’s Metropolitan Transportation Authority is starting an environmental review of a proposed crosstown subway line along Harlem’s 125th Street that could serve an estimated 164,000 weekday riders.” www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Whoa. @haleaziz.bsky.social has the scoop on a truly insane plan to use some military training ships for deportations, with people presumably shackled or locked in cells for days at a time as they transit to Central and South America. Each journey would be staggeringly expensive — and dangerous.

Please enjoy this minute long video of @governor.ny.gov struggling and failing to get one of @mta.info's new turnstiles to let her pass into her own press conference about the new turnstiles 🤣

PATH proving increased weekend service reaps upping ridership. Now only if they would lengthen the window of increased service on weekends for after 9pm.

Get the same wifi the new Acelas have and we are cooking.

So many people have asked - what happened to the original Transitway plan for World Cup? I talked to several people about what happened during talks between NJ Transit and MetLife Stadium owners. More on that, how NJT came in under budget and what they paid for, and the future of Transitway.

Is there some reason why every Costco parking like is the most poorly designed with as many obstructions as possible.

Looking forward to seeing something finally come to this site. Am awaiting to see if we finally get a chain grocery store over in this area. An Aldi or Lidl would do very well. jerseydigs.com/canal-crossi...

It’s crazy, but after the passage of the 2021 federal infrastructure law—designed to be the biggest infusion of funds into transit in US history—spending on rail transit….dropped.

The violent attack by a co-pilot on a FlyDubai plane this week raised questions about the background checks and health screenings that most commercial airline pilots must undergo.

617 days into his 2nd term, Trump's Department of Transportation has *still* not approved a single new transit project for full funding. The problems I highlighted in March—how this lack of funding only makes projects cost more & delays completion—have only worsened www.urban.org/urban-wire/r...

This area is a hotbed of development but really needs an infill Hudson Bergen Light Rail station at 18th Street.

The City Council on Friday released a new plan to build more than 5,000 apartments on Staten Island's North Shore — with an eye toward the borough’s closest neighbor, New Jersey. gothamist.visitlink.me/RLrAQ4

Breaking News: OpenAI’s technology went rogue and meddled with three U.S. government websites this summer without the A.I. lab’s knowledge. nyti.ms/4y5MY7n

Kansas City brought that Midwest Magic ✨🚋🌃

It’s pretty defeating there’s no sense of any roadmap in the works for NJ Transit similar to this, even tho one could argue we have the density to have our own success story with upping frequencies.

A look at the next new thing coming to Newark Terminal A. www.flickr.com/photos/panyn...

A few thoughts about the 'Accelerate' plan released by SEPTA today to modernize transit services in the greater Philadelphia area. With specific focus on regional rail. The regional rail improvements could bring headways as good as every 15 mins - but only in the close-in metro areas....

Do not know how, but my flight out of Newark Airport to Kansas City tonight is actually happening. ✈️

United 18, a 777 from MXP running hours late (a good delay for a change, if they were on time they would have diverted and stuck elsewhere hours ago) looks to be the first aircraft to land at EWR in EIGHT HOURS.

The impacts of Superstorm Sandy continue to haunt us all.

THIS JUST IN: Plot twist, Amtrak tells me this was a NJ TRANSIT contractor on NJT property that caused the outage leading to the telecom problems and causing the FAA to pause flights along Northeast.

An Amtrak work crew clipped the new fiber optic cable the feds put in last year, linking air traffic control systems in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Flights were grounded for much of the day.

“FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford told reporters a backup fiber line had been cut accidentally by a construction crew in New Jersey, prompting significant flight cuts.” That’s…not how backups work? bsky.app/profile/airl...

Listening to ATC chatter and it sounds like whatever the FAA is doing with this "airspace sterilization" requires *all* aircraft to exit the bravo airspace (I think?), even helicopters (I think?). This is absolutely wild. I have no idea if anything like that has happened before.

92 cancellations and nearly 70 diversions at Newark so far today as an FAA equipment outage continues to hold flights bound for Newark, Philadelphia, and Teterboro at their origin airports. Traffic comparison between last week and today.

somehow the article doesn't mention that he thinks this is a cheat code for getting around lawsuits? like cmon we all know what's going on here. "it wasn't immediately clear what prompted the post" why play dumb like this

Maybe this will finally help speed the end of The NJ Turnpike and Garden State Parkway’s toll booths. Instead of doing what NY did with the Thruway, it would be nice when they do this if they actually redo some interchanges for better flow. www.cnn.com/2026/09/18/u...

Very intrigued to know what may be coming to Hudson Bergen Light Rail besides upgraded elevators. www.nj.com/traffic/2026...
