"The new Lyndhurst station is approximately a three-minute drive from the Kingsland station."

Incredible how little NJT management understands ridership.

Hell, the only buses in that general area go by the Kingsland station, and only during the peaks.

The 76 is a full-time route, passing directly by the current Kingsland station. The 192 is full-time and passes a few blocks from Lyndhurst (and really should run on Valley Brook Avenue now that DeCamp is out of the picture)

By Itself, this would mostly benefit off peak & reverse peak riders.... Unless that was your intent, you would also have to have peak direction #199's run on Valley Brook to have all day weekday service along it.....
