NEWARK, NJ — Beginning Sunday, March 9 and continuing through early May 2008, NJ TRANSIT will conduct customer surveys as part of an effort to identify opportunities to improve transit services and facilities in several northwest New Jersey counties.
The surveys, part of the Northwest New Jersey Bus Study, will be conducted aboard selected NJ TRANSIT and private carrier bus routes to collect information about customers’ travel patterns, including origin and destination, transfers and commute time.
During this phase of the study, bus customers will be handed a survey card to fill out upon boarding. After completing the survey, customers may return it to the survey representative aboard the bus or mail it back to NJ TRANSIT free of charge.
Customer surveys will be conducted on the following routes:
In addition, surveys will be distributed at NJ TRANSIT’s Wayne/Route 23 Transit Center, Willowbrook Park & Ride and Mothers Park & Ride.
