NJT new #655 bus route Princeton-Plainsboro
Posted by kknj on Wed May 2 20:34:38 2012 edf40wrjww2msgDetailB:detailStr fiogf49gjkf0d NJ Transit is starting a new #655 bus route as of May 14th between Princeton and Plainsboro. The main reason is to serve the University Hospital that is relocating from downtown Princeton to Plainsboro. Word is that ample word is being circulated around the area that the new bus route will get patients and visitors to the hospital's new location. It will interface with the 600, 605, and 606 routes in both towns, but it will serve the Princeton Dinky station in downtown Princeton, not the Princeton Junction station as the 600 does.

Wish there was more service, though, but perhaps if demand warrants it, the buses will run more frequently and on more days during the week. I see there's a connection to a route "M6" . How long has this route been running and what kind of vehicles does it use today?

Note in the timetable that they mention a "suggested fare", which indicates that they will probably carry someone for free if they are unable to pay. If this new hospital becomes a popular destination, they may want to offer more service, possibly extending the 814 line down US 1 to Plainsboro.
