You have been misled, the WMDs absolutely existed because Rumsfield sold them to them to Iraq during the Ford and Reagan years, unfortunately they and about $100 million in cold hard US currency was smuggled out of Iraq into Iran and Syria and god knows where else before we could get in there and reclaim them. The Mustard Gas Saddam used on the Kurds was compliments of the USA. Most folks forget…   more ›

Report: NJ Transit Customer Satisfaction at All-Time High

Nearly 4 out of 5 post-Sandy survey respondents now say they would recommend transportation agency to friend, relative.

A new customer satisfaction survey of New Jersey Transit customer’s post-Superstorm Sandy has overwhelmingly endorsed the job the agency has been doing, according to an announcement by the Christie administration and the agency Tuesday. In the online survey conducted Feb. 4 through February 25, or during the third quarter of the agency’s fiscal year, nearly four in five customers, or nearly 14,000 participants on the agency's website (njtransit.com) said they would recommend NJ Transit to a friend or relative.

Why bother complaining? The fix is in, as it is in every area of this state. It doesn't matter who you vote for. Christie was 100 percent behind the fare hikes. NJT will continue to have bloated payrolls and overpaid workers, and will continue to raise fares. But at least you'll get a pretty brochure on your train seat every so often.   more ›

NJ Transit Cross-Honoring Tickets During Storm

Cross-honoring in effect through Thursday.

As the area braces for a potential three-to-five inches of tardy snow (not quite a White Christmas, but close, right?), NJ Transit announced that it would be cross-honoring of tickets starting at 1 p.m. Wednesday. Cross-honoring will remain in effect until the end of the service day Thursday, Dec. 27, enabling customers to use their ticket or pass on an alternate travel mode—rail, bus or light rail. For example, customers who normally take the bus from Rutherford to the Port Authority Bus Terminal may use their bus pass on the train from Rutherford to New York Penn Station. Similarly, customers who normally take the bus between Atlantic City and Lindenwold may use the train instead. Customers are reminded that many NJ Transit rail lines …

Typical NJ Transit. They will cross-honor tickets during the storm. They should do that all the time! There shouldn't be a difference between having a bus ticket or a rail ticket, it's all going to the same pocket- NJ Transit. It would be helpful if NJT would, at some point, let customers know what their travel options are if rail is out. For example, if service goes out on the Morris & Essex …   more ›
