New Metro North Stations Coming to Bronx

After Decades on Drawing Board, Parkchester, Morris Park and Co-op City Finally to Get Stations

Rendering

BRONX - Governor Kathy Hochul announced the groundbreaking for the Metro-North Penn Station Access project alongside leaders from the Metropolitan Transportation Authority during a ceremony in the Bronx this morning. 




With four new stations in the Bronx, this project will bring rail service within one mile of 500,000 residents and will be the largest expansion of Metro-North Railroad since it was founded in 1983.

By offering rail service to and from Manhattan, Westchester and Connecticut, this will expand access to jobs, education and entertainment for East Bronx communities. Additionally, the project will greatly reduce travel times, provide reverse commuting opportunities and offer a critical second route into Manhattan for the first time ever through Metro-North.





"We're going to have a one-seat ride directly into Penn Station. This is going to be life-changing for people, and that's what I'm excited about,” Governor Hochul said. “This transit desert in the East Bronx is going to be gone. Over half a million Bronx residents will live within one mile of one of these new stations.



“A lot of people have lived here, been raised here, died here, and never had a chance to really understand what true freedom is all about, freedom to be able to have access to transportation without having most of your life confined to walking and taking a bus and taking another train and trying to figure out a way to get to the jobs that are there,” Hochul said. “All it took was a simple linkage that was missing for so long...And projects like this really do have an impact on people's lives very profoundly, very profoundly. And to me, infrastructure's all about connections. That's why since I became Governor a short time ago, it's all I talk about."
