Regular weekend service will resume at the PATH Grove St. station beginning this upcoming weekend of June 22-23. Since April, New York-bound trains have bypassed the Grove St. station on weekends to accommodate extensive station rehabilitation work that included replacing floor tiles, repainting, refinishing platform columns, and installing LED lighting and electrical wiring throughout the station.
The rehabilitation work was performed in two phases: The first phase required weekend bypasses of Journal Square-bound and Newark-Penn Station-bound trains at Grove St. from January through the end of March. To accommodate the second phase of work, weekend bypasses of New York-bound train service at Grove St. had been scheduled from April through the end of June. These weekend bypasses for New York-bound trains at Grove St. are no longer needed.
During both phases of this weekend work, weekday service was not affected. This work is part of the Port Authority’s $440 million 2-year program known as the PATH Forward Program to renew and modernize the 116-year-old PATH system.
