New York, NY (July 2, 2025) — Commuters faced significant delays Wednesday morning when a crash involving two buses shut down the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan and left more than a dozen people injured.
According to reports, the collision occurred shortly after 6 a.m. on the entrance ramp at Eighth Avenue near West 41st Street, right outside one of the busiest transit hubs in New York City. The New York City Fire Department responded quickly and confirmed that 14 people sustained injuries in the crash. Fortunately, all injuries were reported to be non-life-threatening, and victims were treated at the scene and transported to local hospitals for further evaluation.
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey announced that the crash has caused significant delays in and out of the Lincoln Tunnel. NJ Transit buses are being rerouted to Secaucus Junction, Newark Penn Station, and Hoboken Terminal to help ease the disruption for morning commuters.
