NJ transit fare hike

Remember that big fare hike that was approved by New Jersey Transit earlier this summer? Unfortunately, it goes into effect today.

Budget shortfalls, delayed trains, canceled routes...that's our NJ Transit system in a nutshell.

A proposal by New Jersey Transit to raise fares on buses and trains an average of 9 percent could be officially adopted by agency officials Wednesday.

NEWARK (AP) — Bus and rail commuters on New Jersey Transit would face fare increases for the first time in five years and see some service cuts under proposals released Monday that seek to close an estimated $60 million budget gap.
