Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says a new software update prevented a third radar outage over the last two weeks at New Jersey's busy Newark airport when a telecommunications line failed again over the weekend.

At times Monday evening, as few as three air traffic controllers per hour were lined up to monitor via radar the planes flying into and out of the airport, the Federal Aviation Administration said.

A brief radar outage occurred at Newark Liberty International Airport early Friday morning, lasting approximately 90 seconds. This incident follows similar outages in April and November, raising concerns about the reliability of air traffic control systems ...

The recent chronic delays and cancellations at New Jersey's largest airport have highlighted the shortage of air traffic controllers and the aging equipment they use, which President Donald Trump's administration wants to replace.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy plans to reduce the number of flights in and out of Newark Liberty International Airport for the "next several weeks."

Blank radar screens. Broken air traffic equipment. Flights in an out of Newark Airport delayed or canceled. Is it safe to fly here?

The city of Newark will install radar detection equipment at a downtown intersection later this year to boost traffic efficiency and safety.
