NJ Transit is expanding its wildly successful Access Link pilot program.
Access Link users in seven more counties will be eligible to opt in to the program, which makes other services such as Lyft and Black & White Taxi available to pick up riders using Access Link’s subsidized rates.
Uber was also part of the initial pilot, which launched in May 2023 in nine counties.
Access Link users who require a wheelchair lift are not eligible for the pilot, but NJ Transit officials have said their hope is that the van service will also improve as drivers and vans are freed up.
“The Riders’ Choice Pilot Program has helped improve on-time performance and reduce wait times for customers and is much more cost-effective for NJ Transit on a per-trip basis,” NJ Transit President and CEO Kevin Corbett said in a statement.
