Bloomfield Shuttle
The Bloomfield Shuttle Bus is designed to pick up resident commuters along a fixed route and transport them to the Bloomfield Station on Lackawanna Place. The Bloomfield Station stops on NJ Transit’s Montclair-Boonton Line, enabling commuters to direct trips to many destinations, such as Hoboken and New York.
Two shuttles service our community. The North End Shuttle travels from the north end of town to the train station via Broad St., and The South End Shuttle travels along Belleville Ave and Montgomery St to the train station.
Our shuttles run on a fixed route Monday through Friday (except municipal holidays). There are several runs in the morning from 5 a.m. to 9 a.m. and several in the evening from 5 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
50 Ride Pass
To better meet the needs of Bloomfield’s shuttle bus riders, the recreation department has slightly adjusted the fare schedule for its shuttle bus program. The new pass system will allow riders to purchase a 50-ride pass for $25. This new pass system will allow riders to use their pass anytime throughout the year; they are no longer limited to a monthly pass.
This new pass system will begin on Tuesday, September 7, 2010. After that date, you must present your personalized pass to our drivers upon boarding the Bloomfield Shuttle, and they will "punch" your ticket accordingly. You can purchase another pass at the Civic Center during regular registration hours if your pass runs low.
Buying a Bus Pass
Each rider must purchase a 50-ride pass for just $25.00 per pass. The passes are “punched” upon boarding the shuttle bus. The passes can be used anytime throughout the year and do not expire; however, they are non-transferable.
Passes can be purchased at the Civic Center Monday – Friday, 830am to 430pm, and Wednesday nights until 8:30 pm. Cash, check, or credit cards (MasterCard or Visa)
