History
South Amboy station was upgraded to be fully compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 as part of a station renovation project from November 2006 to January 5, 2010. During the first phase of the project, a new $4.8 million pedestrian overpass was constructed, allowing safe transfers across the two tracks at the station. The overpass opened on March 11, 2005. The second phase of the project replaced the two original low-level side platforms with a new ADA-accessible high-level island platform, and reconstructed the station building.
The station received a new ticket office, canopies, signage, and lighting. The second phase cost $29 million, and was completed on January 5, 2010.
