It's kind of a problem that the TPK gets paid by the amount of traffic it generates.

I'm not interested in skipping out on zones, just wondering what the experience is like if you are taking the 119 through JSQ. Can you just stay in your seat on the bus? Sometimes I just prefer a one seat ride even if it takes longer.

I can’t, because sexual relations between a state and a man is strictly forbidden. It is written.

Don’t forget… the holland tunnel has had half of its entry lanes closed for over a year now…. But sure make a bigger highway, would love to wait in a bigger line of cars all trying to merge into the 3 entry toll lanes

I wonder if that's an angle thing. I've definitely seen reflections like that from license plates before. But yeah, toll evaders are scum.

Wonder what the cost would be of burying i-78 under 13th st, disconnecting the tunnel from downtown (maybe an on-ramp at Monmouth?).

Get a lot of commuter traffic off of local streets, and takes stop lights off of i-78.

​

Would that be a $10bn project?

​

What would the land value be in the area between 10th and 18th st? That whole area has been starved by the tunnel entrance and is a bunch of gas stations and car-centric retail. How much wealth could be unlocked by converting that into a dense neighborhood if the commuters are all buried away?

Lol. But seriously so many people do. Ive been in JC since the 80s and never went to Times Square for NYE…Im sure its magical but the lack of restrooms and standing on your feet for 8+ hours is insane. I’ve met numerous folks who have literally taken meds and forgone liquids just to see the ball drop. Its insane.

Crazy how despite all the traffic it’s still the fastest way into the city if you don’t live near grove st, Newport, or journal square.

not sure, i just often see that address, 52 bowers st, come up on seamless

Fuck those other states tho.

100%, the zone-based fare requires a solid few minutes of looking at the map, reading basically everything, and basically drawing your own conclusions. the exact opposite of what a transit system (especially in diverse places) should be: user friendly.

wait, what's your question lol? if you get on at Communipaw and want to go Port Authority? Well I think it's like 4 Zones Interstate so you just show that to the bus driver. One time, my dad wanted to get off at Willow + 19th St since he showed a 2 zone intrastate pass, but the bus was so crowded he couldn't get off so he went all the way to Port Authority and the driver didn't notice.

not gonna lie, my butt hurts from sitting for that long since the 119 is making constant stops picking up people at every stop lol. I don't do it that often.

In McGinley Sq near St Peters. Great young dentist, my whole family has been seeing him for some years.

traffic cameras are illegal, toll gate cameras are completely legal. also sometimes people in one state drive to other states. and sometime those other states are okay with taking pictures of plates.

The NJ Transit bus system is very confusing for new and infrequent users. Especially when it comes to calculating the correct fare.

And I say that as someone who’s had very little trouble riding buses in other countries where I don’t even speak the language.

Lol, I would never

aren't traffic cameras illegal in nj anyway, sounds like this guy wasted his money...

As long as we are doing dumb questions: I live close to JFK south of JSQ and sometimes take the 10 or 119 to JSQ to catch the Path. But I have never tried to take the 119 all the way to Port Authority. What happens at JSQ if you are on the 119 from, say Communipaw? Do you just stay in your seat? Do you have to get off? Also how many zones is it from south of Communipaw to Port Authority?

Wear a diaper if you go/

Murphy has been THE worst governor for Jersey City - the fact that we keep voting for this union pawn is just so tragic. He’s so bad I miss the days of Christie sunbathing in a closed beach.

Can $10B buy a nuke so we can start from scratch? If so, sorry still No.

I like how they pose the question as if fixing traffic has anything to do with this. They could fix traffic tomorrow, make one lane a dedicated bus lane and they move many multiple the number of people into NYC and get rid of a huge amount of traffic. They don't want to fix traffic, they want to generate traffic because the TPK gets paid by the car.

Good to see the Times strongly calling out Murphy's hypocrisy on climate and environmental justice.

The pockets getting that money are anything but random.
