Bill > A1445

Introduced Session

This bill requires all New Jersey Transit Corporation (NJT) rail stations and bus and rail terminals to display historical information about the area in or around the stations and terminals. The NJT is required to identify a series of New Jersey historic sites and memorials, as that term is defined in the bill, located within or around its rail stations and bus and rail terminals. The NJT is then to design, purchase, erect, and maintain a historic marker describing the persons, places, and events commemorated and having other suitable inscription as the NJT may deem necessary. The New Jersey historic sites and memorials are to be inclusive of all eras and diverse cultural aspects of New Jersey's history, as well as be geographically representative of the entire State. Finally, the NJT may seek the assistance and cooperation of local government officials and entities, owners or operators of historic sites and memorials in the State, or entities that identify and compile data on historical sites and memorials to facilitate the goal of this bill.
