New Jersey

NJ Transit is taking the next major step in advancing the extension of the Secaucus-Meadowlands Transitway, which, when complete, will provide environmentally friendly transit access between the Meadowlands Sports and Entertainment Complex, Secaucus Junction and Jersey City.

New Jersey Sen. Troy Singleton will host a public meeting with NJ Transit President and CEO Kris Kolluri that will focus on River LINE service reliability, accountability, communication, and safety.

The New Jersey Senate Transportation Committee approved a bill that would impose a per-seat or per-flight tax on nonessential helicopter flights departing from or arriving at airports, heliports, and helistops licensed by the State, as well as a sales tax on these flights, and dedicate the revenue to NJ Transit.
