This bill mandates the New Jersey Transit Corporation (NJT) to expand or modify its transportation services, specifically motorbus regular route service, paratransit service, and rail passenger service, including light rail, to better accommodate individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. The NJT is required to implement these changes within one year of the bill's effective date. Additionally, before making any modifications to routes and hours, the NJT must solicit and receive input from individuals with autism and their advocates to ensure that their mobility needs are adequately addressed.

Furthermore, the bill establishes an annual requirement for the NJT to continue seeking advice and guidance from individuals diagnosed with autism and their advocates. This ongoing consultation aims to assess whether the current transportation services sufficiently meet the needs of this community and to determine if further adjustments are necessary. The bill emphasizes the importance of incorporating the perspectives of those directly affected by the transportation services in order to enhance accessibility and inclusivity.
