A 5074 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires DOT to confirm availability and prioritize establishment of park-and-ride options near major warehouse facilities.

This bill requires the New Jersey Department of Transportation to review and prioritize the creation of park-and-ride lots near large warehouse facilities, defined as buildings of at least 100,000 square feet used for storing goods. The legislation aims to reduce traffic congestion on local roads by ensuring these parking areas connect to public transit or carpooling options for workers. If a review finds no existing solutions to ease commuter traffic, the Commissioner of Transportation must establish new facilities. Additionally, the bill mandates that the Commissioner submit a report to the Governor and the Legislature every two years detailing the number and locations of available and newly created park-and-ride spots.
