NYC's Port Authority Bus Terminal ramp shut due to collision injuring over a dozen

A crash occurred at the Port Authority Bus Terminal injuring at least twelve people Wednesday morning in New York City. The incident involved three NJ Transit buses colliding at the inbound ramp at West 40th Street and Ninth Avenue in Manhattan. The Port Authority Police reported that one individual was taken to the hospital for evaluation, while the FDNY mentioned that twelve people were treated for minor injuries. An FDNY Deputy Chief confirmed that ten patients with minor injuries were taken to local hospitals and one refused medical aid. The crash led to the closure of an entrance ramp, affecting NJ Transit bus service and traffic at the Lincoln Tunnel. Commuters were advised that express bus lane operations were redirected to Secaucus Junction, Newark Penn Station, and Hoboken Terminal, while the upper level of the terminal was handling bus traffic rerouting. The cause of the collision is yet to be determined. Witnesses described traffic delays following the crash. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing situation.
