NEWARK — Commuters who take PATH trains from New Jersey to Manhattan are going to notice some improvements over the next several years, including more benches, cleaner stations and better loudspeaker systems.

The upgrades are part of a $200 million, 10-year project by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. It’s being funded partly by the extra $2 motorists have been paying at the city’s bridges and tunnels.

One of the biggest projects will to be transform the Harrison station just outside Newark. The 97-year-old station is scheduled for more than $100 million in improvements, including replacing its aging platform and waiting area with sleek, glass- and steel- covered pavilions.

Other stations will be spruced up with new seating, lighting and flooring.
