FREE BUS SERVICE * USA - To Light-Rail Station: Will It Be Popular?
North Bergen,NJ,USA -The New York Times, by DAVID HOLMBERG -December 12, 2008: -- The new buses are free and they are green, but North Bergen township officials say that commuters may still need a little prompting to take advantage of a new shuttle service that will take them to the light rail station from either end of town... Nicholas J. Sacco, the mayor of this Hudson County township, and other officials hailed the buses at a news conference recently. The shuttle service is part of a three-year pilot program that will use two buses to carry commuters from parts of town that are underserved by mass transit during rush hour. Each bus seats 18 passengers and will operate from 6 to 8 a.m. and 4 to 7 p.m., traveling to the North Bergen Light Rail station at Tonnelle Avenue and 51st Street...
