NJ Transit and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers did not reach a deal by the deadline so May 16 marks the start of the engineers strike.

NJ Transit states that if they were to accept BLET's terms, it would cost both them and New Jersey taxpayers $1.363 billion between July 2025 and June 2030.

Commuting between New Jersey and New York City by boat is the OG form of city transportation and can be much more pleasant than the underground route, but it costs significantly more than other alternatives.
