New Jersey Transit bus service is divided into three operating divisions: Northern, Central, and Southern. Each division has a number of bus depots and routes assigned.
In addition to the buses directly operated by the company, NJ Transit also provides buses to operators providing service on NJ Transit routes under contract, as well as private carriers operating their own routes.
