Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the project was to model the impacts of proposed improvements to the Newark Penn Station pick-up/drop-off facilities and to the surrounding roadway infrastructure. The major findings of the report include: The NJDOT/City of Newark proposal of adding a left turn from Raymond Blvd WB to Route 21 (McCarter Highway) SB results in negative impact and increased delay for all vehicles trips on Raymond Blvd and buses on Market Street. NJ Transit's combined recommendations (as outlined in the following) result in significant improvements and a reduction in delay for all vehicles and person trips on both Raymond Blvd and on Market Street. The most effective way to improve bus, auto, and truck circulation in the vicinity of Newark Penn Station is to implement NJ TRANSIT's recommendations and remove the proposed NJDOT/City of Newark allowance of left turn vehicles from Raymond Blvd to Route 21 SB from further consideration.
