Bordentown station is a light‑rail stop on the River Line operated by New Jersey Transit, located in Bordentown, Burlington County, New Jersey, United States. The station opened on March 15 2004, when the River Line service began between Camden and Trenton. It consists of a single side platform serving one track, with a modest parking lot, bicycle racks, and a shelter for passengers.
The stop provides northbound service toward Trenton Transit Center, where connections are available to SEPTA Regional Rail, Amtrak, and NJ Transit commuter rail lines, and southbound service toward the Walter Rand Transportation Center in Camden, offering transfers to the PATCO Speedline, SEPTA's Wilmington/Newark Line, and other NJ Transit bus routes.
Historically, Bordentown was served by passenger railroads dating to the 19th century, including stations on the Central Railroad of New Jersey (CNJ) and the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR). Those facilities were discontinued in the mid‑20th century as passenger rail service declined. The contemporary River Line station is situated near the original town center but does not occupy the same site as the former CNJ or PRR stations.
The station is owned by the State of New Jersey and is accessible in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). It is unstaffed, and tickets are purchased through on‑board conductors or via NJ Transit ticket vending machines located at nearby stations.
