S 919 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes "New Jersey Transit ADA Task Force."

S 919 establishes a nine-member "New Jersey Transit ADA Task Force" to study and improve accessibility at New Jersey Transit facilities. The task force will examine all terminals, stations, stops, and equipment owned or operated by NJ Transit or its contracted partners to ensure compliance with the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). It must identify needed upgrades, estimate costs for each improvement, and evaluate whether ramps could replace non-compliant elevators. The task force has two years to submit a final report to the Governor and Legislature, after which it will expire. This bill directly affects NJ Transit's infrastructure and the accessibility experience of people with disabilities using public transit.
