N.J. Admin. Code § 16:85-2.1

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 24, December 18, 2024

Section 16:85-2.1 - Introduction

(a) Carriers have no right of any kind to the receipt of any contract for any regular route bus service pursuant to this chapter and the award of such service contracts will always be at the sole discretion of NJ TRANSIT acting in the exercise of its business judgment and pursuant to N.J.S.A. 27:25-6.b.

(b) NJ TRANSIT is not required to contract for the operation of any regular route bus service. However, from time-to-time, as it may deem proper, NJ TRANSIT may offer for contracting, one or more regular route bus services. NJ TRANSIT's decision as to which specific routes may be offered for contracting will be based on NJ TRANSIT's determination of which services will serve NJ transit's best interests by being operated through a contract for service. However, all new NJ TRANSIT regular route bus service, and all NJ TRANSIT routes resulting from a major restructuring of service, will be offered for contracting, unless NJ TRANSIT determines that doing so will not provide for the operation of such regular route bus service in the most effective, efficient, coordinated, safe, and responsive manner.
