Potential NJ Transit Strike Threatens Commuters and Events

New Jersey is facing a looming strike involving NJ Transit, which could impact approximately 350,000 commuters. As negotiations continue, NJ Transit CEO has expressed frustrations with the engineers’ union, while federal mediators are called in to facilitate talks. The strike could disrupt services significantly, including cancellations for train and bus routes, notably affecting access to MetLife Stadium for upcoming concerts. Alternatives such as increased ferry services and luxury bus options are being considered. Commuters are advised to prepare for a potential shutdown and explore other transport options if the strike occurs.
