Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) To Top

The Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) represents a broad cross-section of civic and business groups, environmental interests, and private provider and user groups. The CAC was established as part of the SJTPO's initial structure in recognition of the importance of public involvement to the organization.  Other interested individuals and associations also participate and are added to the mailing list upon request.

Shore Connection Committee To Top

The Shore Connection Committee (SCC) was established as a forum of vested state and local parties to evaluate the Route 55/47 Corridor, come to agreement on the problems in the corridor, and come to an agreement on a solution or range of solutions that could advance in the project development process.  The New Jersey Department of Transportation supported the SCC by working with the committee to examine options and by providing consultant assistance to evaluate the options and facilitate the SCC's meetings.

Please contact the SJTPO at (856) 794-1941 to confirm a scheduled meeting.
