The Village is working with NJ Transit, our state representatives and resident activists to ensure that more buses are added to the lines leaving South Orange, which began Tuesday morning, and apparently did provide some relief to morning commuters. Additionally, the Village is:

• Requesting that the bus lines available have added to them express routes specifically for SO commuters to get into New York City
• Pressing NJ Transit for a timeline on the restoration of Midtown Direct train service
• Making available all Village resources, including the jitney's, for use to help ease congestion for the commute and provide options to SO commuters. 

You can view the bus schedule for the 107 bus line from South Orange to Port Authority here: http://www.njtransit.com/pdf/bus/T0107.pdf.
