We have had unconfirmed reports that this bus was Suburban Transit's 9:35 am bus out of East Brunswick on Wednesday, Oct. 26 and had passengers aboard the bus.
We presume that all the passengers got out safely besides the one passenger mentioned in the story:

PM XBL from PABT concept
Interesting concept.
It would seem to us that bus parking in midtown would be a bigger help though.
Also traffic is far worse downtown that midtown in our view altough every little bit helps.

New train station for only $19,750 per commuter that uses it
$7.9 million for 400 commuters a day.
Of course this does not include a second station at the other end of the line, the cost of the train, etc.
That assumes it is also not 200 commuters twice a day too.

PA toll hike drives away drivers and revenue
Wouldn't it be funny if they got LESS revenue with toll hike than they got before?
