ALICE stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. Those living in households below the ALICE threshold are employed and living above the federal poverty line but are still struggling to afford basic essentials. The Household Survival Budget is an estimate of the cost of household essentials.

  • Chapter 1 — Background and Planning Context
    Chapter 1 1 BACKGROUND AND PLANNING CONTEXT 1 Background and Planning Context The West of the Hudson Regional Transit Access Study (WHRTAS) has been initiated by MTA Metro- North Railroad (Metro-North) in partnership with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (Port Authority) and in cooperation with New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) and New Jersey Transit (NJT) to improve mobility and accessibility in the West of Hudson region. Projected population and employment growth in Orange County, together with growth in ridership on Metro-North’s West of Hudson commuter service and a projected rise in Stewart International Airport (SWF) operations, necessitates the consideration of improved and expanded transit services for travelers in the region. WHRTAS evaluates alternatives for improving transit services between Central Orange County and Manhattan and access to SWF from the surrounding regions, Lower Hudson Valley and New York City. The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) is the lead federal agency for this study which is being conducted in accordance with FTA’s Alternatives Analysis requirements for New Starts program funds. The study also considered the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969. Extensive agency coordination and public outreach was implemented to obtain input and guidance throughout this study. This included the formation of a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), which reviewed study material, advised on technical issues, and coordinated with a broad array of elected officials, agencies, organizations, and the general public through direct communication, workshops, roundtable discussions, and open houses. WHRTAS is being conducted in two phases. Phase I is the initial Alternatives Analysis (AA) phase, which evaluates the benefits, costs, and impacts of broad range of transit alternatives with the potential to meet the project's goals and objectives and concludes with the recommendation of a short list of alternatives.

  • MILEPOSTSWEST a Newsletter for MTA Metro-North Railroad Customers September – October 2014
    MILEPOSTSWEST A Newsletter for MTA Metro-North Railroad Customers September – October 2014 Parking On Sale… $20 A Year! We’re slashing parking fees at all LAZ-operated parking facilities located on Metro-North’s Pascack Valley and Port Jervis Lines for one year. This will lower the cost of your commute, and hopefully make the railroad an even better option for those of you traveling from Orange and Rockland counties. As part of the one-year pilot program effective November 1, we are offering a “12 for 1” annual parking permit, with 12 months of parking available for the cost of just one month – a 91% reduction. This reduces the cost of annual parking from $235 to just $20. Any 12-month/16-hour permit with a starting date of November 1 can be purchased for $20 (permits with remaining unused time after October 31, 2015 will still be honored until the permit reaches its expiration). Daily meter parking fees also will be reduced by 55% from $2.75 a day to $1.25 a day. Permits can be purchased just as you buy your current parking permit from LAZ, either via a current online account (accessible by RRparking.com) or by telephone at 888-682-PARK (7275). If you require additional information you may contact LAZ directly via the web at RRparking.com or by phone (Monday – Friday, 7 AM to 9 PM) at 888-682-7275. Why are we doing this? We believe Metro-North is the most reliable and convenient way to get to Manhattan and this change will save you money.

The vehicle was abandoned there five minutes earlier by its intoxicated driver, who was traveling south on NYS Route 17 when he lost control of the vehicle, hit a fire hydrant, and came to rest upon on the tracks. Train #42 left Port Jervis Station bound for Hoboken NJ on the single non-electrified main line track at 3:51 a.m. Train #42 consisted of four coach cars being shoved by locomotive #4130 and had a crew which consisted of the engineer, operating from cab car #6701, a conductor and an assistant conductor.

  • Executive Summary- Port Jervis Line Service Strategy Report
    Executive Summary Port Jervis Line Service Strategy Report January 2018 Introduction This study explores potential strategies to improve the attractiveness of Metro-North’s Port Jervis Line (PJL) service for existing and potential customers. The study determined that the most viable strategy for the short to mid-term (next 5-10 years) is to increase service frequency and to introduce reverse peak service through the construction of three new passing sidings and a new rail yard located mid-point along the Line in Campbell Hall, NY. Background Metro-North’s Port Jervis Line (PJL) is a 65-mile rail line providing commuter rail service primarily in Orange County, New York. Running from Port Jervis to Suffern in New York State, the line operates with limited stops in New Jersey, sharing the remaining 30 miles of right-of-way (ROW) with NJ TRANSIT’s Main-Bergen County Line service into Hoboken Terminal. Service to and from Manhattan is available by transfer. Metro-North contracts with NJ TRANSIT to operate the trains between Hoboken Terminal and Port Jervis Station, a total distance of approximately 95 miles. Currently, there are 27 weekday trains on the Line and 14 trains on each weekend day. Ridership and the Need for Enhanced Service Manhattan is the primary out-of-county destination for Orange County workers. Socioeconomic and demographic projections suggest the potential for substantial ridership growth on the PJL.
