NJ TRANSIT rail passes were being cross-honored on NJT buses, private bus carriers and PATH trains to deal with the delays and outages, Durso said.

There was no estimate for when service would be fully restored, Durso said.

Midtown Direct service was not being impacted by the signal issues, Durso added.
