Requires NJT to continue to issue and honor rail passenger service and motorbus regular route service tickets with no expiration date.
This bill requires New Jersey Transit (NJT) to stop setting expiration dates on new rail and bus tickets. Specifically, NJT must issue and honor one-way tickets and 10-trip tickets for rail, light-rail, and bus services with no expiration dates. It also mandates that NJT reinstate any unused tickets purchased before this law that expired under prior policies, within 90 days of the bill's effective date. The policy directly affects NJT passengers who previously bought tickets that expired under older rules, ensuring they can still use those tickets for travel.
