Mount Arlington (sometimes called Howard Boulevard Park and Ride) is a New Jersey Transit park-and-ride station in Mount Arlington, New Jersey that opened in January 2008. Both the Morristown Line and the Montclair-Boonton Line serve this station, with service to Hoboken Terminal or to Pennsylvania Station in Manhattan via transfer to Midtown Direct service. Motorists from Interstate 80 and U.S. Route 46 have access to this station.

Prior to the station's opening, the lot also served as a park-and-ride for Lakeland Bus Lines. Lakeland continues to serve the lot.

This is not the first station at Mt. Arlington. The Delaware, Lackawanna & Western provided regular service to Mt. Arlington until the station was discontinued in the early 1930s.[2]
