Commuter News

Ah, the infamous traffic circles of New Jersey. They’ve been a staple for generations, turning the simple act of driving into a local adventure.

Pennsylvania State Police Trooper Nathan T. Branosky said a 2024 Toyota GR86 heading north in the southbound lanes of Route 1 hit the tractor-trailer near the on-ramp from Pennsylvania Avenue around 1:15 p.m.

An analysis of NJ Transit notifications by the Asbury Park Press shows that a lack of available crew or engineers was the leading reason given for a cancelled train in August.

SEPTA service cuts are on the horizon, and they could hit your daily commute harder than expected.

The 93-year-old bridge, also known as Route 71, was completely closed on June 13 when the South Bridge leaf suffered a mechanical failure and unable to go up-and-down.

Among the biggest cuts are the complete shutdown of service on the Trenton Line between Trenton and Philadelphia and the elimination of five bus routes serving Bucks County.

Port Authority spokesman Steve Burns told New Jersey 101.5 that the three buses crashed around 6:15 a.m. on the ramp leading into the terminal.

The metal roadway joints that expanded in the extreme heat caused bucking in two spots on Route 287 within 4 miles of each other in Morris County Tuesday afternoon.

" it’s clear that this mechanical failure could have been avoided with consistent preventative maintenance," Monmouth County Commission Tom Arnone said about the indefinite closure of the Shark River Bridge.

The New Jersey Department of Transportation will close all westbound lanes Friday night at 9 p.m. to allow for final paving and striping.
