The station, part of the Trenton line, has been in need of work and would be the third area rail station renewed in recent years, with Croydon and the Levittown stations having improvements completed in recent years.
It is thought the funding for the project will come mainly from federal resources, one locally elected official said who asked not to be identified.
Fitzpatrick’s office did not respond to requests for comment or whether he will be at Monday nights council meeting presentation.
As of publication time it is unknown when the was the last time the station had work performed on it.
