A 2192 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires NJT and county transit agencies to offer transit pass for individuals seeking access to One Stop Career Centers.

This bill requires New Jersey Transit (NJT) and county transit agencies to provide free one-time transit passes to individuals seeking to access One Stop Career Centers. The passes cover up to three round-trips and are available upon application to job seekers needing transportation to these career centers. NJT and counties must develop a simple application process within six months, aligning with a statewide standard. It directly affects job seekers who rely on public transit to reach career services, removing a transportation barrier for employment support. The policy changes are concrete: free transit access for a limited number of trips, administered by transit agencies.
