Rail commuters across New Jersey are experiencing delays due to “weather-related conditions.” Their website reads, “NJ TRANSIT bus and private carrier bus service is accepting rail tickets and passes systemwide,” offering commuters alternate routes during the disruption.

The situation is severe on the River Line, where service is fully suspended in both directions between the Walter Rand Transportation Center and the Waterfront Entertainment Center due to flooding in Camden. Substitute bus service has been rolled out to accommodate affected riders.

North Jersey Coast Line rail service has been halted in both directions. A downed tree near Hazlet has brought train operations to a complete standstill.

Travelers are advised to check NJ TRANSIT’s website and plan accordingly.
