Whats wrong with Bridgewater station
iboxagox OP t1_isa2ie7 wrote
It's not logical, but she's not comfortable navigating transfers etc. There is no direct line in to NYC on the Raritan line. I think her best bet would be parking at a path station and go to Christopher street, but that would require a transfer I believe.

Some trains are direct

And she's an adult with a job making real money? Wut

There is one direct line that would make it within the hours. (Gets in at 10:06). The first direct line back leaves at 8:48pm.
Some people are afraid of spiders and they still hold down jobs.

My comment before was probably uncalled for, hadnt had coffee yet.
May I suggest taking a day to commute in with her via Raritan Valley Line to see how the transfers work and what she needs to do?
I agree transferring sucks, nobody likes it, but it is easy to do and it might help her get past the fear.

The direct lines on the Raritan line start late. The earliest one gets in after 10am. (Which would work) But there are no direct lines out in normal business hours (leaves at 8:48pm from NY).

Raritan NJT - Bridgewater to Newark Path
Newark Path to Journal Square Path (WTC Train)
Journal Square Path to Christopher Street (33rd Street Train)
PATH trains are frequent. I do a similar route to Newport every day. I read 2 or 3 NYT articles on my phone during this.
With parking, I pay $4800 a year from Dunellen.
