Bridgewater serves as a New Jersey Transit rail stop on the Raritan Valley Line located within Bridgewater, New Jersey. It stands on the former location of the Calco station, which previously provided service to American Cyanamid before its closure.
History
In 1999, the station underwent reconstruction concurrently with the development of TD Bank Ballpark, utilizing the ballpark's White Lot as parking for commuters. In June 2011, ticket vending machines were installed on the inbound platform.
Plans designate Bridgewater station as the endpoint for the proposed reactivation of the West Trenton Line service. This route is intended to extend southwest toward the West Trenton SEPTA station in Ewing, then proceed eastward along the Raritan Valley Line to reach Newark Penn Station.
Station layout
The facility includes two low-level side platforms adjacent to a pair of tracks. Each platform measures long, supports boarding for two train cars, and lacks accessibility features.
