The New Jersey Transit Corporation and its subsidiaries (NJ TRANSIT) are responsible for the provision of public mass transit services in the State of New Jersey. NJ TRANSIT owns, controls, and operates equipment (such as railcars and buses), yards and facilities. The facilities include, but are not limited to, rail and bus stations and terminals and are instrumental to NJ TRANSIT's mission to provide and safely manage mass transit services in New Jersey. NJ TRANSIT's stations and terminals are centers of activity in their respective communities through which many people pass each day. From time to time, NJ TRANSIT receives requests from members of the public for permission to exercise their constitutional rights of expression at such stations and terminals. NJ TRANSIT, through this chapter, informs and instructs the public how it can exercise its rights on or about NJ TRANSIT facilities and the procedures to be followed in exercising such rights. NJ TRANSIT also sets forth, in this chapter, the standards of behavior to be followed in or on NJ TRANSIT facilities or equipment. Finally, NJ TRANSIT sets forth, in this chapter, procedures to be followed to obtain authorization to use certain railroad bridges to advertise non-commercial community special events. It is NJ TRANSIT's objective and intent that any and all applicable provisions of the New Jersey Code of Criminal Justice (Title 2C), the motor vehicle and traffic laws of New Jersey (Title 39), as well as any other applicable statutes of this State shall continue in full force and effect. NJ TRANSIT reserves the right to reject any applications for commercial or non-commercial speech or expression at NJ TRANSIT facilities where such conduct will impair NJ TRANSIT's ability to conduct its mass transit related business or where such expression gives rise to a credible public safety concern.
