NJ Transit To Implement Emergency Bus Service To Provide Alternatives for Decamp Customers
NJ TRANSIT has announced an emergency bus service plan to provide alternative transit options for weekday DeCamp bus customers. The plan includes extending four existing NJ TRANSIT bus routes, which will accommodate approximately 85% of current weekday DeCamp customers. The remaining customers will largely be accommodated by leveraging existing bus, rail, and light rail service, as well as local municipal bus shuttles in West Orange and Bloomfield.
To assist DeCamp customers in identifying their available alternatives, NJ TRANSIT is launching a comprehensive informational campaign. The emergency plan will be implemented on Monday, April 10th, and will only include weekday peak periods for the four modified bus routes. During weekends and off-peak weekdays, customers are advised to utilize existing NJ TRANSIT services.
The modified bus routes will depart from Gate 208 in the Port Authority Bus Terminal and will be denoted with a āDā next to the route number. In addition to the modified bus routes, customers can also use existing NJ TRANSIT bus, rail, and light rail services, as well as Bloomfield Shuttle and West Orange Jitney.
NJ TRANSIT has created a web page at njtransit.com/decamp for customers to access information on the emergency service plan, including available travel options, fares, schedules, and more.
