North Brunswick is a proposed railroad station along the Northeast Corridor (NEC) in North Brunswick, New Jersey, that will be built by New Jersey Transit Rail Operations (NJT) to serve its Northeast Corridor Line. Approved in 2013, it was planned to open in 2018[1][2] and projected to cost $30 million.[3] It is one of several projects along the "New Jersey Speedway" section of the NEC.
The station was proposed for the former Johnson & Johnson[4] facility on Route 1 and Aaron Road by the new owners of the 212-acre (86 ha) site,[5] and is part of a transit-oriented development known as Main Street North Brunswick,[2][6] New Jersey Transit's Fiscal 2015 capital budget allocated funding for the station.[7][8] which has been designated a transit-oriented development, or 'transit village'.[9]
As of mid-2017, construction of the project had not begun.[10] In October 2017, it was announced the project had received $50 million from the Transportation Trust Fund.[11] In October 2019, NJT and Middlesex County had committed $70 million to start work on the station.[12][13] In 2021 the County Improvement Authority hired WSP USA to design the station.[14] Initial designs were released in March 2023. Construction is slated to begin 2025.[15][16]
Although station construction has yet to begin (as of 2024), the Main Street North Brunswick transit village has continued to develop, with Costco and Target opening in 2014, Panera Bread opening in 2017, Courtyard by Marriott opening in 2019, Shake Shack opening in 2024, and 100 townhomes fully occupied.[9]
