NJ Transit approves bus from Shore to airport

NEWARK, N.J. - Jersey Shore residents will be able to ride a bus to Newark Liberty International Airport.

NJ Transit's Board of Directors today approved a $10 million contract for Academy Lines to operate the route.

The No. 60 buses will leave the Toms River Bus Terminal and stop at several park-and-ride lots along the Garden State Parkway.

When they reach the airport, the buses will stop at the South Area; Terminals A, B, and C; and the North Area Transit Center.

The bus service will begin New Year's Day as part of a 30-month trial.
