A designated Transit Village is the area around a transit facility that the municipality has demonstrated a commitment to revitalizing and redeveloping into a compact, mixed-use neighborhood with a strong residential component. The municipality must apply for designation and must meet the Transit Village Criteria. The program is administered by the NJ Department of Transportation (NJDOT), which provides information on the program Web site https://www.state.nj.us/transportation/community/village/index.shtml. This feature class replaces the previous edition of the Transit Villages. The polygons were created by buffering each Transit Village centerpoint with a 0.5 mile radius. This edition uses the same methodology for determining all the rail station and bus terminal center points. The points are located by using the outside corners of the platform or platforms to create a rectangle, and then extracting the centroid of the rectangle for each station or terminal. Center points for indoor or underground platforms were estimated from entrances (see source record for details.)ArcGIS FeatureLayerhttps://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/82c8b325dd344b51b200dd3d41c6f2e7_0engNew Jersey Geographic Information Network (NJGIN) Open Data PortalPublicTransit Village Buffer [New Jersey]Web servicesNew JerseyLast Modified: 2024-06-03
