The Trump administration said Monday it was convening an emergency task force and fast-tracking urgent steps to prevent additional telecom outages at the facility overseeing Newark air traffic after three incidents have shaken public confidence.

A technology outage took out radar and communications for Newark Liberty International Airport’s controllers briefly Friday morning, the second such breakdown in two weeks at a heavily trafficked U.S.

Sunday's incident marks the fourth time in the past two weeks that technical problems have disrupted air traffic at Newark.

The Federal Aviation Administration says it's taking immediate steps to alleviate the delays at Newark Liberty International Airport​ that began more than a week ago​.

A Port Authority official says that outdated tech, a shift in air traffic control staff and routine runway work converged at Newark Airport.

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.
