Introduced Session

This bill requires an owner or operator of certain autobuses to develop a route schedule for each autobus providing fixed route service and to publish the route schedule on the website of the owner or operator and at each transportation facility, station, stop, or stand where the autobus provides fixed route service. The term "autobus" applies to, with certain limited exceptions, a privately-owned autobus operated in intrastate or interstate business over the public highways in this State for the transportation of not more than 40 passengers for hire. The owner or operator of a ferry service is required to post a route schedule, along with the table of rates, that is visible to passengers entering the boat and on the website of the owner or operator of the ferry. The bill also requires the New Jersey Transit Corporation (NJ Transit), the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ), and the Delaware River Port Authority (DRPA) to develop and publish route schedules for each motorbus regular route service route, rail passenger service route, ferry passenger service route, commuter railroad route, or Port Authority Transit Corporation (PATCO) route operated by the respective agency at each transportation facility, station, stop, or stand providing service to the route and on the agency's website. This bill requires an owner or operator of certain autobuses, NJ Transit, the PANYNJ, and the DRPA to update their respective websites with any changes to a route schedule and to post the changes in the same manner as the original route schedules were posted, within 30 days of the changes taking effect.
