Park
and
Ride
Lots
| The Situation |
An inventory of existing park and
ride lots showed there were 3,996 spaces at lots near transit stations in the Route 1
corridor, almost all of which were at or near capacity. Many had waiting lists. |
|
|
| The Proposal |
Add an additional 1,000 spaces in
the corridor. |
|
|
| The Locations |
Edison and New Brunswick (Jersey
Avenue) NJT Northeast Corridor rail stations. |
|
|
| The Actions |
Bring together the appropriate
entities to determine the exact number of spaces that can be located at the train stations
above (as well as any additional locations) ; seek funding to design and implement. |
|
|
| Estimated Annual Cost ($Millions) |
$0.2 - $0.5 |
|
|
| Overall Traffic Benefits |

maintain/increase transit ridership) |
|
|
| Other Impacts and Considerations |
Can work with private developers
to encourage joint development |
