The 119 has been designated to a private company due to employee shortages. Aka: no serious repercussions for buses being late or just straight up not showing up. Used to be my go-to bus and now I can only rely on the 125 because I know it’s run by actual NJ Transit.

no, the 119 is now run by NJT. hence all the drivers wear the NJT uniform.

from October 2011-2021, 119 was run by Academy Hillside 22 and then from June 2021? - June 2022 it was run by community (coach USA), and from June 25th, 2022 - present, it is being run by NJTransit.

The 10:45 PM 119 bus did not show up at all to the Port Authority so they end up letting us wait over an hour for the next scheduled bus and don’t have any proper way to let us know. Just a port authority employee saying the bus was still in New Jersey, not that it was cancelled. The bus being in New Jersey could mean it’s 10 minutes away about to enter the Lincoln Tunnel. Just tell us the 10:45 was cancelled.
