Commuting Just Became Easier at Penn Estates
10/01/2008
Commute by Bus to/from the Poconos and NY / NJ?
Starting Monday, October 6, 2008, the Pocono Pony of Monroe County Transit Authority will be shuttling residents from Penn Estates to the commuter bus stops that serve Martz Trailways and other Pocono buses which travel to New Jersey and New York every day. This is a great new service which we hope will enhance the quality of life of those commuting from Penn Estates to jobs in NY and NJ.
Public Transportation is Convenient & Economical
For only $2.50 each way (or less if you buy books of 20 one-way trips), residents can get a ride on weekdays from the front or back gates of the community to the Martz stations at 447 or Delaware Water Gap. We recommend riders walk or get dropped off (kiss n ride!) at either gate as parking is not available at this time. This is a two month trial of this service so please spread the word!
