New Jersey Transit

The New Jersey Transit Corporation (usually shortened to New Jersey Transit, NJ Transit or NJT) is a statewide public transportation system serving the US state of New Jersey; New York, Orange, and Rockland counties in New York State; and Philadelphia County in Pennsylvania. It operates bus, light rail, and commuter rail services throughout the state, notably connecting to major commercial and employment centers both within the state and in the adjacent cities of New York and Philadelphia.

Covering a service area of 5,325 square miles (13,790 km2), NJT is the USA's largest statewide public transit system and the USA's third largest provider of bus, rail and light rail transit by ridership, linking major points in New Jersey, New York and Philadelphia.

NJT also acts as a purchasing agency for many private operators in New Jersey, with numerous private operators receiving equipment from NJT (primarily buses) for route service within the state not controlled by NJT.
