What if you have a monthly NJ Transit ticket already? Here's what you need to know about Phil Murphy's announcement.
A 15% fare hike took effect on July 1, and service problems have continued. From Aug. 26 through Sept. 2, though, NJ Transit riders can ride free, as a thank you, Gov. Phil Murphy says, and more wire issues. Either way, the problems facing NJ Transit passengers over the last few months have the attention of the head of state. And Murphy wants to try to make it right. Ish.
After delays, cancellations and track and wire problems, New Jersey Transit is days away from jacking up the fare. News 4's Adam Harding reports. Monthly pass holders who have already purchased an August pass, which covers travel through the end of the month, will automatically receive a 25% discount on their September monthly pass purchase through the mobile app, at Ticket Vending Machines , or ticket windows.“Understanding that our commuters have faced many disruptions this summer, we are providing a one-week fare holiday for NJ TRANSIT riders," Murphy said in a statement.
