🎉 September 2025 🛣️ Jersey Strong, Traffic Tough: Your September 2025 BOMA NJ Transportation Report Is Here

If you’ve recently sat in Parkway traffic behind a Quebec-plated RV towing a small yacht; muttered “oy vey…” in the Lincoln Tunnel; or watched a drawbridge delay your commuter train while contemplating your life choices — this one’s for you.

BOMA NJ’s September 2025 Transportation Report is our most Jersey edition yet — and not just because it opens with 10 Judy Blume-inspired NJ traffic titles. (Spoiler: “Deenie Missed the Bus Again” hits a little too close to home.)

Packed with real infrastructure updates, transportation policy shifts, aviation chaos, and a healthy sprinkle of sarcasm, this month’s report has two clear goals:

  • Make you smarter about what’s happening across the region’s transit systems,
  • And make you laugh while doing it.

Because let’s be honest — New Jersey could use a little cheer after a rough few months of:

  • 🛣️ Highway mayhem (sinkholes, fires, hidden toll plazas),
  • ✈️ Air travel absurdity (flight caps, baggage bonanzas, actual turtle smuggling),
  • 🚆 NJ Transit limping toward 2026 (with fares up, service reliability down),
  • 💸 EV subsidy whiplash, not to mention tariff drama,
  • And a surprise literary cameo by… Indiana Jones and the Liberty Bell Conspiracy (we’ll let you read that one for yourself).

📌 Highlights From the September 2025 NJ Transportation Report

  • Newark Airport: Mixed signals as delays rise, but United claims things are “back to normal.” Flight caps extended through October 2026.
  • Air Travel Watch: From TSA rule changes (keep your shoes on!) to mechanical malfunctions and mid-air emergencies — the skies aren’t so friendly.
  • EVs & Tariffs: A political soap opera starring Elon Musk, collapsing Tesla sales, and the end of the $7,500 tax credit.
  • NJ Transit Woes: Train fires, stuck bridges, busted ACs, and a 3% fare hike—plus, the Supreme Court is getting involved.
  • Infrastructure Deep Dive: Gateway Tunnel progress, bridge collapse solutions, and $2B in Bergen County rail projects still stuck in limbo.
  • The Road Sign Renaissance: Bon Jovi lyrics meet public safety. This summer’s viral highway signs now have Springsteen, Whitney, and even Jonas Brothers contenders for next season.
  • Ports & PATH: Fire incidents, delays, and PATH train drama — proving that ferry envy is real.
  • Jersey Weird: Seinfeld, robotic fish, “Diner of the Damned,” and the legend of the “Evil Clown” zoning battle.
