  • Jersey City Bus Study
    JERSEY CITY BUS STUDY FINAL REPORT Prepared By New Jersey Transit Bus Service Planning Department November 2, 2009 TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE Executive Summary 1 I. Introduction 5 II. Study Objectives 5 III. Information Collection 6 IV. Basic Data 7 Jersey City Local Bus Service Map Following 7 V. Assessment of Existing Bus Service 8 VI. General Priorities 12 VII. Specific Recommendations 17 VIII. Phasing the Recommendations – A Blueprint for the Near Future 27 Compiled Appendices Following 31 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Jersey City Local Bus Study was written in response to concerns that portions of the Jersey City local bus network were collapsing as private carriers cut back or eliminated service in its entirety. NJ TRANSIT, the City of Jersey City, the County of Hudson, and the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority funded the work effort. It was prepared by the Bus Service Planning staff at NJ TRANSIT with input from a Technical Advisory Committee composed of individuals representing the funding agencies. The focus of the study is on short-term improvements primarily in Jersey City that need to be implemented as resources such as operating funds and equipment become available. This report describes the existing bus service in Hudson County and presents short- term recommendations for changes and improvements to the local bus system, both in terms of general and systemic issues as well as specific route-by-route actions. More than three dozen action items were identified to improve existing bus operations. These items range from route-specific service adjustments to providing for more ticket and pass sales outlets either by vendors or the installation of ticket vending machines (TVMs).

    The Motor Coach Metamorphosis 2012 Year-in-Review of Intercity Bus Service in the United States Chaddick Institute for Metropolitan Development January 6, 2013 Joseph P. Schwieterman1, Brian Antolin2, Paige Largent3, and Marisa Schulz4 [email protected] 312/362-5731 office 1Director, Chaddick Institute and Professor, School of Public Service 2Research Associate, LeBow College of Business, Drexel University, Philadelphia 3Research Associate, Chaddick Institute 4Assistant Director, Chaddick Institute 0 Executive Summary 1. Intercity bus service grew by 7.5% between the end of 2011 and 2012—the highest rate of growth in four years. Conventional bus lines, after declining modestly between 2010 and 2011, expanded by 1.4%, in part due to Greyhound and Peter Pan’s new specialty services. 2. Service by discount city-to-city operators (discount operators) that do not use traditional terminals in many cities, such as BoltBus and Megabus, surged by 30.6%. For the first time, this sector accounts for more than 1,000 daily scheduled operations. BoltBus’ expansion in the Pacific Northwest and Megabus’ expansion in California, Nevada, and Texas have greatly expanded the sector’s visibility on the national travel scene. 3. Conventional and discount operators appear to be benefitting from the federal crackdown of “Chinatown” bus operators, several dozen of which were shut down on May 31, 2012 for noncompliance with certain safety regulations. 4. Discount operators are developing new technologies to inform customers about service issues, such as delays and cancellations. Such innovations have also helped operators find arrival and departure locations that create less neighborhood interference at hub cities than in the past.

Schwieterman, Professor, School of Public Service + Director, Chaddick Institute Brian Antolin, Research Associate, Chaddick Institute Alexander Levin, Research Associate, Chaddick Institute Matthew Michel, Research Associate, Chaddick Institute Heather Spray, Research Associate, Chaddick Institute CONTACTS Joe Schwieterman [email protected]; 312/362-5732 office Marisa Schulz [email protected]; 312/362-5731 office Calendar year 2015 brought much needed innovation and tech- nological advancement to the intercity bus industry in the United States. More carriers are introducing new business-class ame- EXECUTIVE nities and comforts, providing greater ease in mobile ticketing, and rolling out new “tracker” software programs that improve the travel experience. Low fuel prices have made driving more SUMMARY affordable, encouraging major bus carriers to shift their orien- tation from expanding their schedules by rolling out new val- ue-added conveniences on a relatively large scale. Major bus carriers rolled out value-added conveniences on a large scale in 2015, exemplified by Greyhound’s new OnTouch© system, megabus.com’s re- 1 served seating program, and BoltBus’ integration of Uber ridesharing into its mo- bile app. Intercity buses handled an estimated 62 million passengers in 2015, about 35% more than in 2008.
