A Former New Yorker

I Remember Seeing An Story On NJTV News Talking About These Jitney Here's The Link If You're Wondering:  

I Never Really Understand Why Jersey Jitneys Are Hated? Yeah I Know They Are Basically Just NJT Routes But Cheaper. But Why The Bad Wrap?

I Saw Academy Bus 17175 On The PNC Arts Center Route

How Do School Tripper Work In The Bronx

Good My Other Ideas Like An Westfield To PABT Via Boulevard Giving Kenilworth People An Direct Way To New York and Revived The #43 Route Again Without The Greenville/Exchange Place Trips

Would A Route That Goes From Broadway Bus Terminal In Paterson To Newark Penn Station Via Lakeview Av and Another One That Goes From Newark Penn Station To Broad/Jersey St via Elizabeth Ave/N Broad St Work

Im Making An J/Z Train Schedule Can You Do An Your Own PM Rush Hour Timetables For Me

Move those R62As that are still on the to the ?

Have some R142s from 239 or Unionport do rush hour trippers (like say a run from 241st to SF, then a round trip on the , then a trip from SF to 241st)?

 

Well The Has 38 Trains In Total and If It's 3 Minute Headways The Is 2 Trains Short

Wait a minute.  You're attributing the overcrowding to the lack of Riverdale express buses? Please.  That's not the problem at all.  If anything the overcrowding is coming from the people up in Yonkers coming down to the city border using the train and all of the yuppies down in Morningside Heights and Washington Heights that now pack on the train.

 

They Should Probably Add Extra Service To Those Areas Where The Is Overcrowded

It also seems as if the trains aren't coming as scheduled during the rush, which is a separate problem contributing to the crowding situation.

 

Then The MTA Should Add Extra BxM18 and BxM2 Service

How about the website? Why reinvent the wheel?

The Train Is Extermely Crowded On Rush Hour and 4 Min Headways Aren't Helping

Im Making An Schedule For The Train. I Need Some Ideas And Stuff

Just Now On MyBusNow #5242 Is On The 1

At 3 Pm I Saw 5740 Signed As 155 To Teaneck At Springfield Ave at Bergen St

Some mean person at 77th St pushes vegan children and her mother into local platform.

In addition, there is stalled train on express track below.

Trains cannot pass 77th St. Station from 86th St is not affected.

Affects

 

Trains Run Between Woodlawn And 125 St

Trains Run Via The Line From 149 St To Nevins St

Trains Run Between Pelham Bay Park and 86 St

Shuttles Buses Will Run From 86 St Sta To Times Sq

What Are The Depots That Operate The Shuttle Bus

 

1. In Lower Manhattan

2.In Bronx From 207 St To 242 St

3.The St Nicholas Av Route

4.The Broadway Portion

You sure you want the 317 to go over the Betsy Ross Bridge on Route 90? It could lose its Camden ridership that way.

 

Lol don't think I've stopped yet!

NJT 49: Bogota-Newport Mall

https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=208174968748802406451.0004d30ec86ae8970148a&msa=0&ll=40.753727,-74.026866&spn=0.026593,0.055747

Why Not Make It A IBOA

Some Proposal I Had:The Newark IBOA (Couldn't Think Of A Good IBOA Name)

 

Bergen St / 1st St IBOA: Will Run From Bergen St & Chancellor Av To 1st St & Park Av Right Near The Park Ave Light Rail Sta. Will Probably Bring New Jobs To Bergen St And 1st St. It Also Provide Additional Service To University Hospital Or Whenever The 1st St/ I-280 Area Is.

 

Irvington Term To Hoboken Term Via Newport Mall: Will Bring Additional Service To Exchange Pl and Communipaw Av / Grand St. Will Also Be Used As An Alternative For PATH Passengers Heading To Exchange Pl Or Grove St And Newport From Newark Penn. Will Also Be The First Bus Route From Irvington and Newark To Hoboken. It Might Have An Express Service Possibly

 

118: Goes From Summit And Maplewood To Lower Manhattan Via Broad St Sta And Broad & Market. Would Lessen PATH Ridership Alot. Especially Will How Crowded It Is. Trust Me.

 

7: Will Run From Maplewood Loop To Rutherford RR Sta.

I Just Saw On MyBusNow #5384 On The 160

I Rememeber Seeing On MyBusNow #5610 On The 27R and #6402 and #6423 On The 62

I Had An Proposal The Essex Union Light Rail This Has Two Lines (As Of Now) The Red and Green Lines

 

Red Line (Park St - E 5th St) Serves Montclair,Bloomfield,Newark, Elizabeth,Rahway,Clark,Westfield,Scotch Plains,Fanwood,Plainfield

 

Green Line (Pompton Av - New Providence Rd) Serves Cedar Grove,Essex Fells,West Orange,Orange,Newark,Hillside,Union,Kenilworth,Cranford,Garwood,Westfield,Mountainside

 

Both Lines Run Every 3-6 Min There Will Be A Park&Ride Between Stuyvesant Ave and Morris Av. If You Have Any Idea For Another Line, New Light Rail Vehicles Add-ons You Can Comment On This Or PM Me. Thanks You For Your Time

In response to AFNYer, the 1 route sadly cannot have more trips going to Jersey City. That is for several reasons. The first one is because on a average weekday, a majority of the Hilton buses are used because they have so many routes from that garage. If that were to happy, then 1 would have to split with 2 garages. The only garage it would be able to split with is Greenville. However, Greenville exhasts almost all of their buses because they have less routes. You see, Greenville only has 6 routes. But, they use so many of their buses on weekdays. If you take a look at MyBusNow off the rush hour, you see about 10 80s, 7 87s and MANY 126 trips. To respond to your Neoplan comment, I would like to have that, but they Neoplans will not be able to handle Ivy Hill Loop. They cannot end there. If there were to be Neoplans on the 1, they would have to add a special trip from Newark to Jersey City and back

Yeah I Thought That Too Neoplans Can't Go Through Ivy Hill Loop. I Think They Can Probably Go Through 20th St Loop (Where A Few 1 Trips Terminate On) And Neoplans Are Only For When The PATH Is Suspended (Which Don't Happen That Much). And Splitting The 1 With Greenville Is A Great Idea

Here A Forum Where You Can Talk About Your Favorite NJT Routes. Especially The Howell I Hear The Drivers There Haul Some Serious Ass. So Here Some Of My Favorites

 

#5 #70. It's Pretty Fast On Washington St (Penn Station Bound) While The #39 (Penn Station Bound Also) Stops At Every Single Stop Along Broad St (Except For W Kinney St) But Just Like The #39 The #70 Is Infrequent But Not As Packed As The #39. Also I Only Take Both Routes From Penn Station To Astor St. I Haven't Took It All The Way To Livingston Mall

 

#4 #80. Even Though I Only Rode The #80 From Journal Square To Exchange Place But I Like The #80 Because It Come Very Frequent Possibly Because It's Near The PATH And The PATH Is Very Frequent and Crowded Too. It's Also A Nice Tour Around Jersey City. An Honorable Mention Goes To The #87 Just Like The #80 It's Very Frequent and A Nice Alternative To Get For Journal Square To Hoboken.

 

#3 #1. Now I Rode The #1 A Few Times Now. And It's Very Good To Say The Least. Now The #1 Goes In Three Sections Euclid Av, Journal Square and Exchange Place. It's Kinda Like The Greenville Garage Routes Cause It's Come Frequent But Not As Frequent As Greenville (Even Though It's An Hilton Route) I Just Wish Want Something Happening To The PATH Like Signal Probelms Usually Near Journal Square. The #1 Should Have Extra Service From Journal Square Probably Could Some Neoplans. Maybe Fairview Could Put Some Of Their Neoplans On The #1 When The PATH Is Suspended Or Something Like That. Or Maybe Just Use The #1 As An Alternative For PATH Passengers That To Journal Square (I'm Talking About The Passengers That Don't Transfer To The 33rd St Train At Journal Square).

 

#2 #139 Honestly I Never Rode This Route. But Due To Frequent Service And Popular Opinion Of Course. I Had To Put It On The List. The Destinations Are Very Unique. So I Like This Route

 

#1 #5 The Reason I Like The #5 Is Because It's Also Like The Fact That It's Also Close To Where I Live. Even Though The #5 Isn't Frequent On Rush Hour (It Runs Every 15 Min During Rush Hour) It's Is A Bit Crowded But You Can Get An Seat And No One Ever Stand Up. And It's A Bit Faster Than The 39/70 Combine

That's just like NJT commuters. Instead of going to NJT and complaining to them about what's happening, they bitch and whine about it on social media thinking that's it's going to make a difference.

These people need a damn reality check. Not everything is NJT's fault. Maybe it's the commuters' fault for not taking into account the NYC tri-state area traffic when they plan their commute. Just the other day I watched some lady start giving a driver BS because he was 5 minutes late.

If you can't take the heat, get the out the kitchen. Drive your car, get stuck in traffic that YOU have to drive through, and see if NJ Transit still "sucks".

I tell you these spoiled MFs have no idea how good they have it....

That Exactly How I Feel About When That Complained About An Fare Hike They Didn't Have For 6 Damn Years

Way I see it, their money, their problem. I'll use them sometimes too, not so much when I'm in Jersey (though not having a monthly when I end up myself on a jitney corridor chances are I might hop in one over the transit bus especially if I want a nice quick ride) but the Chinatown-Flushing vans and those get me where I need to be in half the time the subway does. Dangerous driving? Maybe. Should the regulations and enforcement be a little more strict? Maybe that too, as long as they're continued to run as they do now (while being kept up to better safety standards, FFS some of the Flushing vans will put a plastic bench in the back of the bus as a makeshift "back row" or make the last people on the bus sit on a bucket or folding chair) and there's nothing anti-competitive that would prevent the jitneys from running along NJT/MTA corridors or anything like that. Bottom line is some people want to spend their money with the jitneys, and that's not my business to say they should be spending it with NJT or the MTA instead.

 

 

Yup.

Hmmmm I Wonder If The Jitneys Would Come To Newark and Screw It All Over There. I Always See Jersey Jitneys On Journal Square Going To PABT Even Though The 125 Is There. Oh And I Love How You Mention Chinatown Buses. There (In My Opinion) Are The Worst Me and My Mom Take The Chinatown Bus To Wilmington,NC It's Very Bad The Buses Aren't Clean. The Drivers Barely Speak Any English And Most Of The Time You Have To Take A Cramped Jitney Near The End Of Our Trip. It's Terrible. But Anyways For Some Odd Reason I Want To Ride A Jersey Jitney Just To See How Bad It Is. Especially With How Cheap They Are In Price and Design
