Englewood Route 4 station
Proposed station along NJ Transit's Northern Branch Corridor Project extension
Englewood Route 4 is a proposed station along NJ Transit's Northern Branch Corridor Project extension of Hudson-Bergen Light Rail in Englewood in lower reaches of the Northern Valley in Bergen County, New Jersey.[1] The station site is along the CSX Transportation (CSXT) Northern Branch where it runs under New Jersey Route 4 at MP 8.8,[2] east of Nordhoff Place and north of Sheffield Avenue.[3]
The station is designed to have an island platform, partially located under Route 4.[4] It will include a parking deck for 945 vehicles incorporated into a storage and maintenance VBF (vehicle base facility).[5] Vehicle access from Route 4 will be via Grand Avenue (concurrent County Route 501 and New Jersey Route 93). Approximately 6 acres (2.4 ha) of property will be acquired to build the parking deck and VBF.[6] Two other HBLR stations are planned in the city further north of Englewood Route 4 at Englewood Town Center and at Englewood Hospital, the line's terminus.[3]
The area radiating from the station site has been dubbed Englewood South. It is zoned for planned unit development (PUD) and consists mixed-use development that is undergoing a transformation from a warehouse distribution & manufacturing district into a residential, retail, and business neighborhood.[7][8]
