Bill > S4086

Introduced Session

This bill modifies the definition of "paratransit service" under various sections of law to mean and include any transportation service other than fixed route transportation service or motorbus regular route service. Under current law, the definition of "paratransit service" generally excludes private or charter services provided by taxicabs, limousines, or transportation network companies. The bill removes this exclusion from the various definitions of this term. The bill's expanded definition of "paratransit service" may enable paratransit service operators, including New Jersey Transit, to contract with certain paratransit service providers that are otherwise disqualified under current law, including, but not limited to, the providers of private or charter services via taxicabs, limousines, or transportation network companies.
