Requires Access Link paratransit vehicle operators to announce stops for passengers.

This bill requires Access Link paratransit vehicle operators in New Jersey to announce every scheduled stop along their route, either verbally or via a recording system. Currently, only fixed-route public transit operators must make such announcements, but Access Link (a paratransit service for people with disabilities under the ADA) is not covered by this requirement. The bill directly affects Access Link passengers, particularly those who rely on stop announcements for safe and independent travel. It amends state law to extend the stop-announcement requirement to this specific paratransit service. The requirement would take effect two months after the bill is signed into law.
