New Jersey Transit now requires passenger to wear masks
It’s no mask, no ride on NJ Transit’s trains and buses while the state remains on coronavirus lockdown.
New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy on Saturday issued an executive order requiring all transit riders to wear protective face coverings or else be denied service.
The requirement also applies to all NJ Transit personnel, but children under the age of 3 and people who say they cannot wear a mask due to a medical condition are exempt.
Murphy’s executive order goes further than face-wear, requiring NJ Transit and private transportation services to carry no more than 50% of their usual capacity and to supply their workers with gloves and face coverings.
