NJ TRANSIT recorded close to 6,000 boardings each weekday at Metropark in 1999 and Amtrak ranks the station 20th in ridership out of the 300 stations it provides services to nationwide.
These high ridership levels warrant sound platforms and passenger waiting shelters designed to accommodate customers using this key regional station.
The Metropark Platform Rehabilitation project will construct new, longer and wider high-level platforms, stairs, climate-controlled passenger waiting shelters, windscreens, and canopies.

 Garden State Parkway
On April 14, 1952, the State Legislature enacted legislation to create the New Jersey Highway Authority, which was to construct, operate and maintain a self-sufficient toll parkway from Paramus to Cape May. Orrie de Nooyer was appointed as the first executive director of the New Jersey Highway Authority.

The entire length of the extension between NJ 17 in Paramus and the New York State Thruway was $21.3 million, $17.0 million of which was borne by the New Jersey Highway Authority and the remainder by the New York State Thruway Authority.
