South Shore passengers may encounter delays of 15-20 minutes over the next several days because of rising temperatures. When temperatures exceed 95 degrees Fahrenheit, we operate trains at reduced speed to compensate for heat-related stress on our track, switches and signals.
To maintain as much cool air as possible in the rail cars, trainmen are being instructed to use the end doors wherever possible and refrain from using the center doors during non-rush periods.
Please visit www.nictd.com to check on train delays, download our mobile app, or register for free text or email alerts.
We regret any inconvenience this may cause. Thank you for choosing the South Shore!
