The New Jersey Turnpike Authority introduced its traffic permitting and lane closure application to more efficiently manage the more than 850 weekly lane closure requests it receives. The electronic system replaces the previous paper-based method of collecting, resolving, and communicating requests and managing the associated traffic permits. The new operations infrastructure limits the authority’s liability, provides speedy response and approvals to contractors and, most important, delivers timely, accurate lane closure information to the travelling public.
