Hello – My name is Bruce Slutsky. In this blog I will talk about my adventures in commuting in the New York Northern New Jersey Metropolitan area as I live in Flushing, NY and work at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark. Here are the steps in my daily commute:
- A have a choice of buses to take from my home to downtown Flushing: Q34, Q44, Q20A, or Q20B.
- #7 Train (express or local) to Times Square.
- #1, #2, or #3 to Penn Station at 7th Avenue and 34th Street
- New Jersey Transit NE Corrider Line to Newark
- Newark Light Rail to Warren Street/NJIT
If everything is according to schedule, it takes about 90 minutes, but that is the exception. There are always problems with commuting and I have 1 bus and 4 trains which rarely run smoothly.
