River Line trains will operate every 15 minutes between Trenton and WRTC, making limited stops, $5 round trip tickets

 

During the weekend, all Philly buses will terminate at WRTC because the Ben Franklin Bridge will be closed.

There will be enhanced 419, 450, and 554 bus service between AC line stations

 

In addition, the Washington Redskins will play the NY Giants, and the Philadelphia Eagles will play the NY Jets, both at Met Life Stadium Thursday 9/24 and Sunday 9/27 respectively

Rail ticket sales have been slow, so now NJT will have tickets on sale during the weekend
http://www.wsj.com/articles/weak-transit-sales-for-papal-visit-1443055909
 

NJ Transit, which will operate its commuter-train service from Atlantic City to Philadelphia and light-rail service from Trenton to Camden, N.J., had sold 2,600 tickets for those lines as of Wednesday—less than 10% of the 28,000 available.

 
Bus route 317 will have extra buses departing from Lakewood Bus Terminal to Camden http://www.njtransit.com/pdf/bus/upcoming/317_PV_TT.pdf
 
Bus route 554 will have the extra buses terminate/originate at the Atlantic City train station instead of the bus terminal
http://www.njtransit.com/pdf/bus/upcoming/554_PV_TT.pdf
 
After 5pm, outbound service on the 405 and 407 will be combined into a single route, serving both malls in one trip

Bus route 419 will run every half hour (including service to Burlington that was cut to Riverside this month)

In addition, there may be buses with destination signs showing 343 River Line Shuttle

We will also be operating Route 343: a shuttle service on the northern end of the River LINE between Trenton Transit Center and Burlington Towne Centre, serving all stations (note that Hamilton Avenue Station will be served at South Broad Street at Hamilton Avenue and Cass Street Station will be served at South Broad Street at Hudson Street).

 
Question: does anybody know if extra NABIs and MCI D4000s will be loaned to South Jersey garages from North Jersey for the weekend?
