NJ Transit service resumes Tuesday after the agency reached a tentative agreement with the engineers union to end their strike. NJ Transit President and CEO Kris Kolluri gave an update Tuesday morning,

The union’s requests “would cost taxpayers and NJ Transit $1.363 billion between July 2025 and June 2030. That’s $684 million more than the contract proposal union members voted down on April 15,” the agency said. Earlier this month, NJ reached a tentative agreement with its largest union, representing 5,500 bus drivers and mechanics.

Long lines snaked throughout the third floor of the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan Monday afternoon, well ahead of the usual rush-hour crush, as commuters scrambled to catch shuttles to park-and-ride lots on the other side of the Hudson.

The initiative by banks and other employers in New York to bring back workers to the office is being undermined by an unexpected roadblock in a neighboring state.

NJ Transit has extended the dates of tickets that expired during the rail strike and added additional time to May monthly passes.
