This program is the product of extensive, ongoing participation by the state’s three metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) and a wide variety of stakeholders. A companion document, “Capital Investment Strategy, Fiscal Years 2007-2011,” puts these investments in the context of longer-term goals for improving New Jersey’s transportation system. The capital program pursues the goals set out in the capital investment strategy. This report also contains the draft five-year program for both NJDOT and NJ TRANSIT. This $3.2 billion program – the largest in New Jersey’s history – takes advantage of the legislation recently enacted which implements Governor Corzine’s initiative to “reform, replenish, and grow” New Jersey’s Transportation Trust Fund. That legislation provides for stable state transportation funding for a five-year period at an increased level of $1.6 billion per year. NJDOT’s program is a balanced investment plan which advances the objectives of our capital investment strategy.

Despite a stalled national and regional economy and skyrocketing fuel costs, the Corporation rose to the challenge by cutting spending, increasing non- farebox revenue and more effectively managing its resources to reduce a reliance on state subsidies. Those actions allowed us to keep fares stable during the fiscal year, something we are committed to doing again in FY2012. NJ TRANSIT remains an integral part of the state’s transportation network, linking New Jersey residents to jobs, health care, education and recreational opportunities. A number of investments paid dividends for customers this year, including the opening of new or rehabilitated stations, more retail options at stations, continued modernization of the rail and bus fleet, and placing new service-specific technology into the hands of customers.
