Lakewood UEZ Board To Vote On $4 Million ‘Integrated Transit Network’
The Lakewood Development Corporation, the board that oversees the township’s Urban Enterprise Zone (UEZ) funds, meets today, and its agenda includes a $4 million transit plan to be submitted to the state, TLS has learned.
The resolution authorizes the LDC to submit a project request to the New Jersey Urban Enterprise Zone Authority for a new “Lakewood UEZ Integrated Transit Network Program,” in an amount not to exceed $4,000,000.
The resolution says the township “has successfully operated a fixed-route shuttle network and now seeks to modernize and expand transit options through the deployment of an on-demand microtransit pilot,” to improve access to jobs, services and commerce. It notes that using zone funds for the project also requires a resolution from the Township Committee.
