(a) The requirements of this section shall apply only to ground transportation services provided by limousines, limousine vans, transportation network companies (TNCs), and motor bus services. In case of conflict with the general requirements of N.J.A.C. 19:76-5.1, the specific language of this section shall prevail; otherwise, the requirements of N.J.A.C. 19:76-5.1shall be satisfied.

(b) The vehicle operator shall load and unload passengers only in areas near the terminal that have been designated by the Authority for loading and unloading of passengers.

(c) If the designated loading/unloading areas are full, vehicle operators shall proceed to a designated holding area.

(d) Vehicle operators shall stay within five feet of their vehicles.

(e) Vehicle operators shall only pick up pre-arranged customers. Additional customers shall not be solicited at the Airport, except as authorized by the Authority through written agreement.

(f) The person providing the ground transportation services shall provide an individual(s) to perform meet and greet functions, handle baggage, and any special assistance needed by disabled customers.

(g) Rates and charges shall be visibly posted and made available to any passenger upon request. The disclosure of the fare or method by which a TNC calculates fares on the digital network or website of the TNC shall satisfy this requirement.

(h) The owner/operator of any motorbus service subject to the provisions of this subchapter shall pay to the Authority an entry fee of $ 5.00 for each bus that it owns or operates and that enters the Airport. The owner/operator of a limousine, limousine van, or TNC shall pay to the Authority an entry fee of $ 2.00 for each vehicle that it owns or operates and that enters the Airport, for the purpose of picking up and/or dropping off passengers. These fees shall prevail unless a fee schedule is developed under separate agreement with the Authority.

(i) Payment of the entry fee shall be made for each entry by any motorbus, limousine, limousine van, or TNC that enters the Airport, for the purpose of picking up and/or dropping off passengers.

(j) All passengers shall be picked up and dropped off in the commercial lane. All owners/operators (except TNCs) shall access the commercial lane by swiping their Authority-issued access control card. TNCs shall access the commercial lane by notifying the Operations Department by pressing the button on the call box and announcing their name and license plate number.

(k) This section shall not be construed as a prohibition on courtesy ground transportation services. Nor shall this section prohibit an individual Airport customer, without prior prearranged ground transportation, from directly making such arrangements from the Airport. Ground transportation services obtained in this manner shall be subject to the appropriate entry fee.
