Plus good to see a massive investment planned for Newark, hopefully one day that city will be able to shed much of its negative name.
I also left out the Expansion the HBLR later this decade up into Bergen County which another 600-900 Million...., the Infills and the rest of the HBLR could be done by 2020. The Paterson system seems to be all over the place , but I would say 2025. The New Brunswick Project is private and has no date... The South Jersey system seems to target 2030 , along with the other Newark system expansions.

Slightly old map...alot has been added or put on the shelve since then
