This new station, visible from the New Jersey Turnpike, functions as a transfer point between ten New Jersey Transit rail lines, with emphasis on transfers to the Northeast Corridor, allowing those passengers from the Main, Bergen, and Pascack Valley lines easier access to New York City and points south. The Northeast Corridor level of this station has one island platform, two wall platforms and four tracks. Based on track numbers (A,B, 2 and 3 for the NECL Level and E, F, G, H for the lower level) it appears that room is available for tracks C,D,1 and 4.
