As a potential rail strike looms, NJ Transit urges commuters to work from home starting Friday and avoid non-essential travel on its services. Negotiations with the locomotives' union continue as the deadline approaches. Many commuters, like Angelica Santos, are concerned about the implications of a strike, including price gouging from rideshare services. To ease potential travel disruptions, NJ Transit plans to add more buses to key routes, providing limited added capacity to accommodate peak travel periods towards NYC.
"NJ TRANSIT strongly encourages all those who can work from home to do so and limit traveling on the NJ TRANSIT system to essential purposes only."
"My employer does have a contingency plan that allows for remote working, but we don't know how long [that] will happen for so my backup plan is mostly praying."
