Cameras are coming to NJ Transit's light rail trains in a response to
riders' concerns about security and a spate of cellphone robberies on
the Newark city subway.
.
"The River Line has implemented on-board cameras, which NJ Transit
police can use to monitor activity on the (light rail) vehicle.
Cameras will be rolled out in June on Hudson-Bergen and Newark Light
Rail lines," said Janice Pepper, NJ Transit director of research.
.
Cameras already have been installed on River Line trains,which cost
$750,000 and the $1.9 million expense to install them on Hudson -Bergen
and Newark light rail trains will be covered by a federal Homeland
Security grant, said Jennifer Nelson, an NJ Transit spokeswoman.
Safety and security were among the items that light rail riders said
were areas to improve in NJ Transit's most recent Scorecard customer
survey results

On the Newark city subway, NJ Transit police coverage is being
increased during the evening commute hours for 4 to 8 p.m., which is
when many robberies occur, he said.
.
"Our number one issue on Light Rail is thefts of smart phones and
robbery, particularly in Newark," Trucillo said. "The arrests we make
are usually groups or packs of two to three offenders at a time, who
overtake someone and steal their device."
.
in 2014, there were 28 robberies reported on all three NJ Transit
light rail systems, for which 29 people were arrested. Of those,
14 robberies were committed on the Newark Subway and Light Rail,
7 on Hudson-Bergen and 7 on the River Line, Nelson said.
