Plenty of other transit systems have reduced fare programs for riders who need it most. Why doesn't NJ Transit? RPA is joining @tstc.bsky.social and other orgs in the Fair Fares NJ campaign to call for reduced fares for low-income riders. Join us in our campaign! https://bit.ly/3Ttjz8l
NJ Transit offers discounts, but not to these riders. That needs to change, groups say.
A newly formed coalition wants NJ Transit to offer reduced fares to its poorest riders, similar to what 18 other transit systems now do, including those in NYC and Philly.
