  • Final Report Northwest New Jersey Bus Study
    Final Report Northwest New Jersey Bus Study December 2010 This report has been prepared under the direction of the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority and NJ TRANSIT, New Jersey’s public transportation agency, with financing by the Federal Transit Administration of the U.S. Department of Transportation. This document is disseminated under the sponsorship of the U.S. Department of Transportation in the interest of information exchange. The NJTPA is solely responsible for its contents. Northwest New Jersey Bus Study - Assumptions Impacting Baseline Conditions February 2011 The Northwest New Jersey (NWNJ) Bus Study was substantively completed in the spring of 2010. Prior to the completion of the final report in December 2010, there were several changes in the assumptions that went into the report that change some of the baseline conditions described in Chapter 2, but do not have a significant impact on the study’s findings. The first was the reduction and elimination of certain transit services in the study area in the spring of 2010 due to severe fiscal challenges facing the state and local agencies. The second was the discontinuation of the Access to the Region’s Core Project in the fall of 2010. Each of these changes and their impact on the study’ findings are explained below. In the spring of 2010, NJ TRANSIT proposed a system-wide set of fare increases and service reductions to address a severe budget deficit faced by the agency. As part of these cuts a number of local routes operating largely within Morris County were proposed for elimination based on low ridership, low farebox recovery and the withdrawal of local financial support for some routes.
