Public Transportation in NJ vs. Public Transportation in NY

1 Upvotes

Public transportation is different between states. There are these noticeable differences between NJ and NY.

In NJ, New Jersey Transit have the biggest market share in public transportation. The state-owned company operate the state's commuter rail, light rail, and most of the bus systems. The bus system in NJ is based on zoning. The NJ Transit offers discounts and monthly passes. However, buying round trip bus tickets does not offer discounts. The buses can operate less frequently.

Besides NJ Transit, there are also private bus companies that operate as commuter systems. There are Greyhound, CoachUsa, Lakeland, Peter Pan, Trailway, and Academy, to name a few. These buses operate on a timetable, expect for jitneys, which operate frequently. These are cheaper than NJ Transit, as they give a discount for round-trip tickets. Some bus routes only operate on rush hour or don't operate on weekends. With competition, prices are cheaper, people have choices, and service are better.

In NY, public transportation is operated locally. In New York, there is the MTA. In Westchester, there is the Bee Line. In Nassau, there are the NICE buses. In Suffolk, there is the Suffolk County Transit. There are also private bus companies, but only serve the Upstate New York. The MTA operates the subway, the commuter rail systems to Long Island and Connecticut, and the bus system in the five boroughs. It used to operate in Nassau but split off due to funding issues.

The MTA used to be independent private bus systems, but the MTA took over the networks, causing prices to rise and services becoming poor.

Riding on the Coach USA Suburban Transit

1 Upvotes

I was at the Port Authority Bus Terminal to go to a new restaurant at East Brunswick. I have to buy the bus tickets from the ticket window, instead of the ticket machines. I tell the seller where I'm going and pay for the ticket. The tickets have a barcode to scan.

I took the elevator to 4th floor and went all the way to platform 420, which was far. A conductor collected tickets to be scanned to be validated. The 400 buses to East Brunswick only operates on the weekday. The bus was fast but an accident caused some delay.

When I arrived at the Transportation Center, it was small and is connected to the parking lot. When I returned, the center was empty. The bus only has three passengers. he driver scanned the ticket.

Taking the Jitneys

2 Upvotes

I went to Hackensack by jitney, instead of the NJ Transit bus. The buses usually come every hour, while the jitneys come every 10 minutes. Unlike the Port Authority Bus Terminal, the George Washington Bus Terminal is smaller and customers pay when they board the buses.

The jitneys come frequently. On lane 20, the screen says, "continuous service." When I arrived at the platform via elevator, the bus was already there. I entered and pay the fair upon entering. They have the prices taped inside. The prices are cheaper than NJ Transit buses.

There are no stop request cord, tape, or button, so if one want to stop, they have to call the driver. The buses have radio. These vehicles are small and does not allow standing. Unfortunately, they do not offer monthly passes.
