Rockland Coaches Cutting More GWB Routes Effective May 5, 2014 - Routes 11C, 14K and 20/84 Eliminated

Rockland Coaches has announced that it is cutting its Routes 11C, 14K and 20/84 that service the George Washington Bridge Bus Terminal effective May 5, 2014.  The company has been cutting its service to the Washington Heights facility over the past few years. The only remaining Rockland route to serve the terminal will be the Route 9 bus after May 5.  The 14K and 20/84 were recently cut to just limited rush hour runs.  The terminal is undergoing a $180 million dollar renovation, with even less buses serving it.  NJT should consider taking over operations for these routes as an alternative to the overcrowded Port Authority Bus Terminal.  Buses could serve the uptown station and then travel down the east side of Manhattan providing a new travel alternative for North Jersey commuters.
