WABC was first to report on the delays, with NewsCopter 7 in the air over New Jersey, and later New York City. Eyewitness News First at 4 began with live images and a statement from New Jersey Transit, announcing that they would cross-honor bus tickets system wide. WCBS, WNBC, and WNYW reported the news on their news at 5pm.
The Lincoln Tunnel has since reopened the outbound tubes.
