In 2012, the Board of Chosen Freeholders authorized the identification of possible BRT corridors.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20150518103556/http://www.njtpa.org/Planning/Regional-Studies/Recently-Completed-Studies/Hudson-County-Jitney-Study/HudsonCountyJitneyStudy.aspx Hudson County Jitney Study], [[North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority]], backed up by the [[Internet Archive]] as of May 18, 2015.
