New Jersey Transit BoD Plan to Replace Escalators

The New Jersey Transit Board of Directors contracted Hall Construction Co. for parts fabrication and installation for two new escalators at Hamilton Station in Trenton, New Jersey, on March 31, Mass Transit reports. The US$5.2 million contract includes the replacement of two escalators at Hamilton Station, one of the busiest stations on the Northeast Corridor. The replacement plan has accelerated the timeline for completion by nearly six months. The production of parts is expected to take up to 10 months and the new escalators are scheduled to be operational by late spring/early summer 2026.
