Set among tree-lined roadways in western Essex County, the predominantly single-family res- idential community is organized into a series of neighborhoods with established Downtown business districts. Each neighborhood displays distinctive, well-kept homes, some of which are in a Nation- al Register of Historic Places historic district. In addition to residential uses, Millburn boasts several renowned cultural institutions including the Paper Mill Playhouse, Cora Hartshorn Arboretum, Green- wood Gardens and Millburn Free Public Library. It is home to the region’s premiere shopping desti- nation: the upscale Mall at Short Hills, as well as a compact, walkable downtown area. The Township can also claim an increasingly rare feature—a movie theater in the heart of its Downtown. Among the Downtown’s other amenities is a NJ Transit station which offers direct access into Manhattan via New Jersey Transit’s Midtown Direct. In less than 45 minutes passengers can travel from Millburn to MASTER PLAN REEXAMINATION AND UPDATE FOR THE TOWNSHIP OF MILLBURN, ESSEX COUNTY, NEW JERSEY 1 Introduction New York’s Pennsylvania Station.

  • Nj Transit Service Changes for Amtrak Summer Repairs
    > NJ TRANSIT SERVICE CHANGES FOR AMTRAK SUMMER REPAIRS In advance of the upcoming Amtrak track work at Penn Station New York (PSNY) during July and August, NJ TRANSIT has published new weekday rail schedules to assist customers in navigating the service changes and making their travel plans. Printable versions of the timetables can be found at a new dedicated information portal at njtransit.com/theupdate after 12 p.m. June 9, 2017. Weekend service will not be impacted. To accommodate Amtrak’s track repairs in July and August at PSNY, NJ TRANSIT must implement service changes weekdays only between Monday, July 10th and Friday, September 1st. NJ TRANSIT is strongly advising customers on all modes of transportation to remain aware of the status of the system by signing up for My Transit alerts, monitoring Twitter (@NJTRANSIT) and the website njtransit.com/theupdate. “More than 80 percent of NJ TRANSIT customers travel over a portion of Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor at some point during their trip, so in essence, they are customers of Amtrak as well,” said NJ TRANSIT Executive Director Steven H. Santoro. “In developing this service plan, the safety of every customer was the top priority. Not only is this plan the safest, but it maintains the maximum number of seats across the rail system.” > NJ TRANSIT SERVICE PLAN JULY 10TH- SEPTEMBER 1ST The following service plan will be in place weekdays from July 10th through September 1st. All Morris & Essex Lines (M&E) customers should check the new schedules for train times and station stops as changes have been made.
