===Rail===
[[NJ Transit]] is planning to restore passenger commuter rail service to Hopewell on the [[West Trenton Line (NJ Transit)|West Trenton Line]]. NJ Transit plans to use the existing one-track right of way that [[CSX Transportation|CSX]] owns through Hopewell, the former four-track [[Reading Company]] Trenton Line. The proposed plan includes double tracking most of the CSX line to increase capacity and construction of a new rail station on Somerset Street. The use of the historic [[Hopewell Station]] is not under consideration in this current proposal. The line would connect Hopewell with [[New York City]], as well as [[Philadelphia]] via a [[SEPTA]] connection in [[West Trenton (SEPTA station)|West Trenton]] and restore service to Hopewell, which ended in 1982.<ref>[http://www.njtransit.com/tm/tm_servlet.srv?hdnPageAction=Project016To System Expansion Projects - West Trenton Line] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090522220528/https://www.njtransit.com/tm/tm_servlet.srv?hdnPageAction=Project016To |date=May 22, 2009 }}, [[NJ Transit]].
