The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey said the region’s facilities will reopen after more than 1,000 longshoremen walked off the job Friday in an labor dispute.
Full operations at Port Authority terminals are being restored and gates will open as scheduled on Feb. 1, the agency said in e-mail alert. Members of International Longshoremen’s Association, which represents port workers, had halted work. An emergency contract board meeting was held at 3 p.m. New York time.
