Posted by tbev on Mon Aug 18 14:56:31 2008 Home > Service Advisories > Customer Notices > Customer Notice New Rail/Bus Shuttle Service to Meadowlands Sports Complex From NY Penn Station Beginning Thursday, September 4, 2008 Convenient, Faster Service at the Same Low Price Beginning Thursday, September 4, 2008, NJ TRANSIT will replace No. 351 Bus service with a new rail/bus shuttle service between New York Penn Station and the Meadowlands Sports Complex via Secaucus Junction Rail Station. With the launch of this new service, Bus No. 351 will no longer operate to the Meadowlands from the Port Authority Bus Terminal. Here’s how the new service works: Customers traveling to the Meadowlands for Giants and Jets football games will board trains at New York Penn Station (PSNY) and make a quick, convenient transfer at Secaucus to waiting shuttle buses to Giants Stadium. Regular $10 roundtrip tickets will be sold at all New York Penn Station ticket windows and ticket vending machines. Dedicated ticket windows will be available for your convenience. Advance tickets can be purchased at the Port Authority Bus Terminal, PSNY, Newark Penn Station and Secaucus Junction. Getting there is easy: 1. Go to Penn Station New York – Penn Station is located 8 blocks south of the Port Authority Bus Terminal at 32nd St. and 7th Avenue. Subway service is available on the A, C, E and 1, 2, 3 subway lines. (From Port Authority Bus Terminal, travel one stop downtown.) 2. Buy Your Ticket – Special $10 roundtrip tickets are available at all ticket windows and ticket vending machines at Penn Station New York and the Port Authority Bus Terminal. Your ticket is used for the roundtrip train ride between PSNY and Secaucus and for the shuttle bus trip between Secaucus and the Meadowlands. 3. Board a Train – With your ticket, you may board any NJ TRANSIT train to Secaucus Junction. Check the PSNY departure monitors for trains with “SEC” code shown next to the train number. Trains labeled “SEC” will stop at Secaucus; do not board a train that does not indicate “SEC.” Secaucus Junction will be the first stop (about 7-10 minutes after departing New York). 4. Transfer At Secaucus Junction – At Secaucus, exit the train, go upstairs and follow signs to the bus loading area. Use your train ticket to pass through the fare gates. 5. Take the Shuttle Bus to Giants Stadium – As you board the bus, present your ticket to the bus operator. The trip to Giants Stadium will take about 15 minutes. After the event: Buses to return to Secaucus Junction will depart Giants Stadium from the NJ TRANSIT loading area located at Lot 14, past the practice field, outside of Stadium Gate D. Shuttle buses will operate up to 30 minutes after the conclusion of the event. At Secaucus, check departure screens for the next New York train. Use your train ticket to pass through the fare gates. |
