Commuter Parking Options for Non-Residents at Maplewood Train Station

Most parking spaces near the Maplewood Train Station are either short-term for downtown visitors or exclusive to Maplewood residents with a permit.

If you're a non-resident, you have a few options:

1. NJ Transit Lots: There are two NJ Transit parking lots near the station (see the map here). These lots operate on a first-come, first-served basis and are relatively small, so it's best to arrive early to secure a spot.
2. Jitney Service: While non-residents cannot buy an annual Jitney Pass, you can still ride the Maplewood Jitney for a $3 per ride fare. The Jitney runs 6 AM to 9 AM and 6 PM to 9 PM, providing transportation to the train station. You can find the schedule here.
3. Alternative Public Transit: You can take the 70 Bus to Millburn and catch a train from there.
