A 2130 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Creates certain public meeting requirements for passenger advisory committees.

This bill establishes two regional passenger advisory committees for NJ Transit: one for North Jersey and one for South Jersey. Each committee, composed of 15 appointed members who regularly use transit in their region, must provide input on fare increases, service cuts, or expansions before the transit board votes. Members must reside in specific counties and either be regular riders or have significant transit experience. The committees will review board agenda items and submit written feedback prior to meetings, ensuring customer perspectives are formally considered in key transit decisions.
