New Jersey has privatized public buses. (I have no idea if they are considered reliable or a good use of taxpayer funds).
Private Carriers | New Jersey Public Transportation Corporation
Oh I didnāt know that.
Iād prefer a state-run service over private ones.
Nothing is stopping a company from dropping āunprofitableā but necessary service, much like what Coach USA did, forcing NJT to intervene to keep service running. Taxpayers are going to pay for it regardless of who runs it but at least with NJT they canāt just abandon service on short notice.

Last two times I was at Suburban Station weekdays AM the restroom was gated shut, not just closed for cleaning.
