NJ Transit Finishes Mahwah Station Exterior Work
NJ Transit completed exterior renovations at Mahwah Station on the Main Line/Bergen County Line, transit officials announced Monday. The finished work marks a milestone in a comprehensive modernization project that began in September 2024, though interior renovations remain ongoing. Officials didn't specify when the remaining interior work will be completed.
Part of Broader Modernization Effort
The Mahwah Station project is part of NJ Transit's ongoing efforts to upgrade aging infrastructure across its rail network, according to the agency. Daniel Corbett, Interim President and Chief Executive Officer, said the completion "represents another important milestone in our ongoing commitment to modernizing our facilities and improving the customer experience." The agency originally announced the comprehensive renovation project in September 2024. Details about the specific exterior improvements weren't provided in the announcement.
Interior Work Continues
While the exterior renovations are now complete, interior improvements remain underway at the station. Jim Sinclair, Chief of Staff, said the renovations are "part of our broader effort to ensure that our stations meet the needs of today's customers while maintaining the character and history of these important community assets." NJ Transit hasn't publicly disclosed the total cost of the renovation project or detailed what interior improvements are planned. The agency hasn't announced a completion date for the remaining interior renovations.
Timeline and Project Status
The exterior work completion comes more than a year after NJ Transit first announced the comprehensive renovation project in September 2024. Officials said the project aims to modernize the facility while preserving its community character. The agency typically undertakes multiple station renovation projects simultaneously as part of systematic infrastructure upgrades, though specific timelines for individual projects vary based on scope and complexity.

The completed exterior work doesn't affect train service at Mahwah Station, which continues normal operations on the Main Line/Bergen County Line.
