Introduced·1/13/26

New Jersey S2559 addresses parking violations that obstruct NJT bus operations and bicycle lanes.

New Jersey S2559 mandates the New Jersey Transit Corporation to implement bus obstruction monitoring systems on buses to capture recorded images of vehicles obstructing dedicated bus lanes, bus stop zones, or designated bicycle lanes. The bill outlines procedures for issuing citations and contesting them, with fines starting at $45 for the first offense and increasing with subsequent violations within a 12-month period. The corporation must issue warning notices for 60 days before active enforcement begins and provide public information about the monitoring systems.
