A 2840 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Provides for representation of certain regions of State on New Jersey Turnpike Authority.

This bill amends the composition of the New Jersey Turnpike Authority board to require geographic representation. It specifies that of the eight board members, at least one must reside in coastal counties (Atlantic, Burlington, Camden, Cape May, Gloucester, Ocean, Salem), at least one in central counties (Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth), and at least one in northern counties (Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Union, Passaic). The change applies to members appointed after the bill's effective date, ensuring regional balance on the board. This is a procedural adjustment to board membership requirements, not a policy change affecting public services or tolls.
