JERSEY CITY, NJ — Jersey City Mayor Jerramiah Healy and NJ TRANSIT have announced the last in a series of forums that will provide residents with the opportunity to offer suggestions and comments about bus service in Jersey City.
The upcoming open house will follow the same format as the first three held earlier this fall. Participants will be interviewed individually about the community’s bus service needs and any issues with existing bus service. The information collected will be reviewed by the study team and included in recommendations concerning current bus service in Jersey City. There will be no formal presentation.
The open house will be held:
