South Jersey Transportation Authority
Permanent URI for this collection
The South Jersey Transportation Authority (SJTA) was established by the Legislature in June 1991 to assume operational responsibilities for the Atlantic City Expressway, Atlantic City International Airport terminal, and parking facilities in Atlantic City. As a successor to the New Jersey Expressway Authority and Atlantic County Transportation Authority (ACTA), the SJTA serves six counties --- Atlantic, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland, Gloucester, and Salem.
Legislation (N.J.S.A. 27:25A-1 et seq.) charged the Authority with coordinating South Jersey’s transportation system, including addressing the region’s highway network, aviation facilities and transportation needs. The Authority’s transportation network encompasses public highways, and transportation projects, parking facilities and functions once performed by ACTA; other public transportation facilities; and related economic development facilities in New Jersey.
