Description

Andover is a planned New Jersey Transit passenger railroad station in Andover Township, in Sussex County, New Jersey, United States, providing service on its Lackawanna Cut-Off line. The line, which is under construction, is anticipated to begin rail service in late 2018. The station will be built at a site on Andover's Roseville Road, approximately 1.1 miles (1.8 km) from U.S. Route 206 and about 0.9 miles (1.5 km) from County Route 517. On the rail line, it will be located about 7.3 miles (11.7 km) west of Port Morris Junction at milepost 53.0.The Andover station will be the terminus of the line but plans exist for extending the Lackawanna Cut-Off line west of Andover. Anticipated construction at the site includes a station and platform with a car park featuring 125 parking spaces (increased from the initially planned 65 spaces). Preparation to restore trackage between Port Morris and Andover was originally slated to begin in 2010 but was delayed until early 2011 due to a dispute over the exact location of the Andover Station area. Another delay was caused while environmental permits were sought. In August 2017, an agreement with a local landowner cleared the way for the necessary permits, and service is now projected to start in 2020.
