The City of Hoboken will host a virtual Green Acres Public Scoping Hearing on Thursday, June 2, at 7 p.m. to gather public comment on the proposed diversion of Green Acres-encumbered property related to the underground construction at 1600 Park and Cove Park as part of the Hudson Tunnel Project.
No surface work will be undertaken at these parks. However, tunneling activities will occur approximately 90 feet below the surface in this area. Minor vibrations from the tunnel boring machine may be discernible for a few days as the tunnel boring machine passes these parks.
The Hudson Tunnel Project aims to preserve the current functionality of Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor (NEC) service and NJ TRANSIT’s commuter rail service between New Jersey and Pennsylvania Station New York (PSNY) by repairing the deteriorating North River Tunnel; and to strengthen the NEC’s resiliency to support reliable service by providing redundant capability under the Hudson River for Amtrak and NJ TRANSIT NEC trains between New Jersey and the existing PSNY.
