Port Authority Bus Terminal Monday: NJ Transit's Weekday Gate Changes Run Through November 13 — Check Your Gate Before You Leave
The 123 boards at expected Gate 211, the 125 at Gate 210, the 165 and 119 at Gate 80 — and all of it sits inside a terminal-wide construction advisory. Monday's timetables run to 120 departures on a single route.
For New Jersey's bus commuters, Monday's variable is not the bus — it is the gate. NJ Transit's advisory for weekday gate changes at the Port Authority Bus Terminal, in effect since Monday, October 12, runs through Friday, November 13, and it sits on top of a second, terminal-wide advisory for construction impacts at the new Midtown bus terminal. The official-timetable pages for the New Jersey routes, verified November 1, carry expected gates that differ by route and can shift again by time of day.
The Monday numbers show how much rides on getting the gate right. Route 123, Jersey City Christ Hospital to New York, runs 91 departures from Port Authority on Monday, from 6:20 a.m. to 1:15 a.m., at expected Gate 211. Route 125 to Journal Square boards at expected Gate 210, Door 3 on Level 2. Route 165 to Westwood is the terminal's heaviest New Jersey timetable on Monday — 120 departures from 5:22 a.m. to 1:10 a.m. — at expected Gate 80, the same expected gate as Route 119 to Bayonne and Jersey City, which runs 86 departures.
The advisories themselves carry the practical warning: a route's gate can depend on the time of day, and temporary changes happen during construction or special events, so the expected gate is a starting point, not a promise. This desk claims no delay or cancellation for any Monday trip — none is posted in the material read this run. The Monday instruction is simply to check the gate for your specific departure before you leave, every day until the advisory lifts on November 13.
