Recall a few months ago, when NJT wanted to increase the step-up fare (the fee you pay if you have a Hoboken ticket and go to/fom Penn Station NY instead) from 85 cents to $2.50? At the time, in response to a deluge of protest from riders and from our local officials, NJT dropped the idea.
But now, with the proposed fare increase, not only will that charge be reinstated, it will be $3.10!
Please, if this issue affects you at all, take the time to email or call NJT, or attend one of the public meetings, to protest this excessive penalty charge.
