"Understanding that our commuters have faced many disruptions this summer, we are providing a one-week fare holiday for NJ TRANSIT riders," said Governor Murphy in a statement. "As we work diligently with Amtrak to investigate and address the issues that have occurred this summer, especially on the Northeast Corridor, we hope this fare holiday offers our commuters some relief. We also encourage New Jerseyans to take advantage of this opportunity, and we continue to be thankful to the many New Jerseyans who depend on public transit."
"These collaborative efforts have already led to a noticeable decrease in infrastructure-related incidents," the governor's office says. There's also been other longer-term actions taken, including the more transformer testing in substations and added evaluation of when and how long work can take place and adjusting that.
