The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey broke ground Friday on construction of the agency’s $160 million project to add an entry point to the Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station served by AirTrain Newark, Amtrak and NJ Transit rail. The project will dramatically expand transit and airport access for underserved areas of Newark and Elizabeth.
“Today marks the beginning of a transformative effort to enhance regional connectivity surrounding Newark Liberty International Airport,” said New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy.
