The FreeB bus will start the New Year with a new schedule on January 2. The enhanced service combines the previous commuter and neighborhood schedules into one expanded route for residents of Princeton and the greater community.

The new schedule will offer additional routes in the morning, making it possible for people who live and work in Princeton to commute by public transportation. It also provides service later in the day, enabling riders who live in communities such as Elm Court, Redding Circle, and Princeton Community Village to have transportation home from work and community events in the evening. Early morning service to the Dinky Station for those who wish to transfer to NJ transit train service will continue. 

“Combining the two separate routes into one will offer increased ridership options that are necessary to meet the diverse transportation needs of the community,” said Fay Reiter, chair of the Public Transit Advisory Committee (PTAC). The committee is comprised of volunteers who work cooperatively with Greater Mercer Transportation Management Association, Princeton University, and other transit development resources to study and make recommendations for improvements to transit services in Princeton.

The FreeB is a free bus service that has provided transportation throughout Princeton since 2008. Ridership demand for the service has increased annually since its inception. To access the schedule, visit www.gmtma.org.
