A 2952 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes "New Jersey Transit ADA Task Force."

This bill (A2952) creates a nine-member "New Jersey Transit ADA Task Force" to ensure NJ Transit facilities meet federal accessibility standards under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The task force, including a disability advocate representative, will study all NJ Transit terminals, stations, stops, and equipment to identify needed upgrades, estimate costs for each, and evaluate ramp installation where elevators are unavailable or non-compliant. It must submit a final report with findings and recommendations to the Governor and Legislature within two years of the bill's effective date. The task force expires after submitting this report. This directly affects people with disabilities who rely on NJ Transit services by addressing accessibility barriers in public transportation infrastructure.
