By
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey is selling historic Art Deco bricks from the Lincoln Tunnel's original retaining walls, built between 1937 and 1945, as they are dismantled to make way for the new Midtown Bus Terminal.

PATH fare hike takes effect ahead of return of 7-day service

By
The cost to ride PATH trains officially increased from $3 to $3.25 on Monday as part of the system's transformative service upgrades. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey says the fare hike will help fund its $45 billion 2026-2035 Capital Plan, which has modernized the 118-year-old system’s infrastructure and enabled the return of 7-day service on all lines for the first time in 25 years, with additional improvements to come. Fares are expected to rise in 25-cent increments, reaching $4 in 2029. Reduced fare for riders ages 65 and older, as well as those with disabilities, also increased by 10 cents, from $1.50 to $1.60.
