Ridgefield is a proposed station along NJ Transit's (NJT) Northern Branch Corridor Project extension of Hudson-Bergen Light Rail (HBLR) in Ridgefield, New Jersey. [1] [2]
The station site is located along the Northern Branch just west of U.S. Route 1/9 (Broad Avenue) at the overpass of the Hendricks Causeway ( County Route S124), southwest of Remson Place. The station is designed to have two side platforms. Parking for 269 vehicles is planned, [3] for which approximately 3 acres will be acquired. [4] As of 2019 NJ Transit bus 127 and 165 stopped in the vicinity of the station [5] [6] on Broad Avenue.
.
Rail service in Ridgefield began in 1859 by a subsidiary of the Erie Railroad. [7] while the area was still called the English Neighborhood. The Erie Railroad Ridgefield Freight Station (#1911) [8] was located at Edgewater Avenue nearby Dutch Reformed Church in the English Neighborhood. [9] [7] and was demolished to make way for the creation of Remson Place after Hendricks Causeway was built in the 1930s. [10] [11] The railroad also had a station in the borough at Morsemere [12]
Early plans and studies from the 1990s for the HBLR system had originally conceived a terminus in Ridgefield at the Vince Lombardi Park & Ride at the New Jersey Turnpike [13] [14] and still under consideration as part of the Passaic–Bergen–Hudson Transit Project.
