Free shuttle buses will be provided at all stations and terminals during the shutdown, scheduled from 10 p.m. Friday through 7 a.m. Saturday, the Port Authority said.
Long Island Rail Road riders and others who transfer at Jamaica for the AirTrain were advised to give themselves extra travel time during the shutdown.
