Voorhees, NJ, March 10, 2016 -- With a New Jersey Transit strike looming on the horizon, AAA encourages all motorists to plan ahead for what could be an epic commute Monday morning. Potentially 105,000 displaced New Jersey Transit riders will disrupt all commuters regardless of their usual mode of transportation, clogging our already congested roadways.
AAA is encouraging all New Jersey motorists to make a plan now so commuters do not have to scramble Monday morning.
AAA Tips for Commuters:
“In a recent survey by the AAA Clubs of New Jersey motorists were asked to rate their satisfaction with their regular commutes, 45 percent say their commute has gotten worse,” according to Rich Bradley, spokesperson for AAA South Jersey. “In the event of a New Jersey Transit strike that number would certainly double.”
In a state as congested as New Jersey, where our roadways cannot take on additional capacity public transit is a critical part of our transportation system. That is why AAA continues to advocate for proper funding mechanisms to ensure that residents have a viable, affordable, accessible alternative to the roadways.
“New Jersey commuters deserve safe and reliable transportation that is not detrimental to their quality of life,” Bradley added. “To put it simply, there is no safe way to convert the volume of New Jersey Transit riders into cars, our roadways bare that strain.”
