WOODBRIDGE, NJ — Want to give your thoughts on the proposed NJ Transit fare increase?

This March, NJ Transit will hold 10 public hearings on the proposed fare increase, and one of them will be in Woodbridge, from 10 a.m. to noon March 7 at Berkeley College, Woodbridge campus Student Center.

In January, NJ Transit announced it is planning a 15 percent hike on July 1, 2025. After that, there will be a three percent annual fare increase every year. That means all fares across the board, on all trains and buses, will go up three percent every year.
