Establishes requirements for on-demand micro transit programs operating within State.
New Jersey's A 4361 establishes rules for app-based micro transit services (like on-demand shuttle programs) operating within the state. It requires drivers to hold commercial licenses and receive equal pay/wages as other transit workers, ensures new services expand coverage to "transit deserts" (areas with limited public transit access) without replacing existing routes, and mandates that existing employees aren't harmed by new programs. The bill creates a three-member Micro Transit Oversight Committee - representing transit agencies, the legislature, and transit worker unions - to review and certify all program plans before implementation. These requirements apply to New Jersey Transit, county agencies, and third-party contractors providing such services.
