Where and how many garages does new jersey transit have?

South Jersey -

Egg Harbor Twp (Atlantic County) replaced and consolidated the Wildwood and Atlantic City garages
Hamilton (Mercer County) - opened a few years ago; replaced the former Mercer Metro garage in Trenton
Newton Av (Camden) - Southern Division headquarters on Newton Av one block away from Haddon Av
Washington Twp (Gloucester Co) - on NJ 42/White Horse Pike

Central/North Jersey (don't know exact locations for all) -

Big Tree (Nutley, Essex County) - Newark crosstown routes - Neo artics used on 13 and 39 assigned here
Fairview (Bergen) - Lower Bergen and Upper Hudson (Ft Lee/North Bergen areas) to PABT/GWB services
Greenville (Jersey City) - Several Jersey City local routes
Hilton (Maplewood, Essex County) - 107/108 to PABT, some Newark local routes that serve Western Essex County
Howell (Monmouth County) - US 9, all the MCI CNGs are maintained here; had also been the site of the NJT Roadeo (don't know if that's still the case)
Ironbound (Newark) - Union and Essex County to PABT and local service in the Elizabeth area
Market St (Paterson) - Passaic County local routes and a few Paterson area-PABT/GWB services as well
Meadowlands (Hudson County) - Off NJ 495 in Secaucus (the approach to the Lincoln Tunnel/at the North Bergen P&R lot, where you can take the 320 to PABT) - Hudson County to PABT and some Jersey City/Hoboken area local routes
Oradell (Bergen County) - Almost exclusively Upper Bergen (north of I-80) to NYC routes
Wayne (Passaic County) - Upper Passaic County to PABT (190-series routes); replaced the old Madison Av facility in Paterson

I think I covered them all...

Newton Ave garage is also a consolidated garage. It consolidated routes formerly from the Maple Shade, and Riverside garages.

Riverside handled the Rt. 130/River Rd lines [9-now 419, and 9A/B-now 409 and 418 routes].


Maple Shade used to handle the 7[now 407], 71[now 413], 117[now 317], and the X[became 458, then absorbed into the 413].

Just some additional info and history on the NJT lines.
