Boycott NJ Transit

A grassroots campaign is apparently afoot to boycott NJ Transit starting May 1 in protest of the train fare hikes.

ATTENTION ALL NJ TRANSIT RIDERS! On May 1, 2010, NJ TRANSIT will be raising ticket prices by 25%. This means if your one way ticket was $5.00 it will now be $6.25. They will no longer sell off peak round trip tickets. In addition, they will cutting transit personnel by 1/3; taking away part of their pension; and not giving raises to the workers.
PLEASE JOIN US AS WE BOYCOTT NJ TRANSIT. During a time of economic instability we cannot afford these outrageous hikes. Please do not buy your tickets before May 1, 2010 and take alternative transit to work (ie: car pool, cab pool, the path train, decamp; lakeland buses; academy buses; Olympia Trails; etc) Let’s show NJ Transit that they need us to stay in service.
