It brings in more revenue than it costs.It seems to be the denser and longer and faster routes from South Jersey seem to do best. The 126 from Hoboken, not so much, even though it can be packed and run every 2 minutes. For some reason, the 111 does fine despite competition from the NEC and its coveted "one seat ride". 126 does not have many fare zones, yet has the same PA Toll and Gate fees to cover as a Toms River bus. They would be a high proportion of revenue. The 87 does not have those expenses. How they allocate common costs, like bus shelters shared by multiple routes and maintenance on a common fleet, or credit transfers, I have no idea. |
