"Have you thought about a reverse-peak initiative to get commuters from SI into Central Jersey to these workplaces, is there a market for that in the form of limited commuter line runs?"There is a market to Newark. After stabilizing the 144, we are going to send buses to Newark. We'll run that one via EWR. After Jersey City, Journal Square and Newark are the top calls that we get. Raritan Center is tempting, but the ready availability of parking and the short distance is a disadvantage for commuter operations. New Brunswick and Princeton via Route 1 and the corporate complexes is a possibility. Jersey Gardens is a possibility as the North Shore would gobble that up. The intriguing markets are the factory shift change markets in NJ. I am a big fan of manufacturing since it provides good jobs for normal people (in general). |
