Bill Summary

This bill requires the South Jersey Transportation Authority to suspend the collection of any toll east of the Garden State Parkway on the Atlantic City Expressway when U.S. Route 40 is closed east of the Garden State Parkway. U.S. Route 40 is a main thoroughfare for many residents of this State. U.S. Route 40 is also prone to flooding. If, for any reason, the route is closed, there is no efficient means of travel for many motorists to and from Atlantic City to Pleasantville without having to pay a toll.
