Holiday Travel Tips:

  • Face coverings are required on board trains, buses, and inside stations.
  • Check Schedules in Advance:   Plan your trip online to become familiar with all travel options. 
  • Ticketing:  Purchase round-trip tickets at the start of your trip to speed your return.  Use the Mobile App, ticket vending machines, or see a ticket agent, if available, to avoid possible surcharges. 
  • Use  NJ TRANSIT’s mobile app for a seamless experience purchasing tickets.

Purchase round-trip tickets in advance to avoid potentially long lines.
  • Service advisories: Customers should download the latest version of the NJ TRANSIT mobile app and customize service alert notifications available via push notifications.
