Lirr Schedule — lirr schedule updates as NJ Transit, LIRR resume modified services and travel ban lifted

The mandatory travel restriction in New Jersey is now lifted, and the lirr schedule is being updated as rail operators resume modified service after a major winter storm. The change matters now because state emergency officials and transit agencies are asking motorists and riders to take extra precautions while crews continue clearing roadways.

State emergency office and timing of the travel restriction

The New Jersey Office of Emergency Management, operating under the Division of the New Jersey State Police, announced the end of the mandatory travel restriction. That restriction began at 9: 00 p. m. ET on Sunday, February 22, and was extended until 12: 00 noon ET Monday; it is now lifted.

NJ Transit and LIRR resume modified services after major winter storm

Both NJ Transit and the Long Island Rail Road have resumed modified services following the major winter storm. Transit operators restored altered schedules as crews worked to bring systems back toward regular operation while hazardous conditions remain in parts of the state.

Road conditions: snow-covered roadways, limited visibility, crews at work

Some roadways remain snow-covered and visibility is limited in some areas, and crews continue working to clear roads and restore safe travel. Motorists are strongly encouraged to avoid unnecessary travel as hazardous conditions persist in some parts of the state.

Lirr Schedule guidance for riders and motorists

Riders checking the Lirr Schedule and motorists should allow extra time for essential trips, reduce speed, and keep emergency supplies in their vehicles. With modified rail service in effect and the statewide restriction lifted, officials emphasize caution on both roads and tracks while recovery work continues.

What officials want residents to do now

Even though the mandatory travel restriction has ended, residents should follow specific safety steps: allow extra time for essential trips, reduce speed when traveling, and keep emergency supplies in vehicles. Crews will keep clearing roads and restoring safe travel until conditions improve.
