NJ Transit begins final phase of South Amboy Station reconstruction

New Jersey Transit recently began building a new center-island,  high-level 
platform as part of the South Amboy Station reconstruction project.  Once the 
project is complete at 2009's end, 127 of the agency's 224 rail  stations will 
be accessible to disabled persons. 
 
The project also calls for adding a platform canopy, climate-controlled  
waiting shelters, a ticket office and restrooms. In addition, NJ Transit is  
installing closed-circuit security cameras,  new customer communication  systems — 
including variable message signs and a public-address system — and  elevator 
and stairs. 
 
The project's first phase, which was completed earlier this year, included  
realigning the tracks to make room for the platform, as well as signal, switch  
and overhead power system improvements.
