Bill Summary
This bill requires the New Jersey Transit Corporation (NJT) to complete development of the Meadowlands Transitway project by May 1, 2026. By May 1, 2025, NJT is required to assess whether the Meadowlands Transitway project will be completed on or before May 1, 2026. If NJT determines that the project will not be completed by that date, NJT is required to develop and post on its official Internet website a public transportation plan outlining how NJT will meet increased transit demand for the Meadowlands Sports and Entertainment Complex. Finally, the bill creates a distinction between the existing BetMGM Meadowlands Rail Line that opened in 2009 and the planned Meadowlands Transitway project.
