From our Little Falls yard to Morristown
Route 46 west to I-80, then I-287 south to the Morristown exits, brings a bus from Little Falls to the Green in about 35 minutes outside the peaks; Route 24 and Route 202 reach the schools on the town's edges. For trips, Morristown is a good starting point for the west: Route 24 to Route 287 opens Chatham, Madison and the Great Swamp, Route 10 and Route 46 lead to Dover and Sussex County farms, and I-287 to I-80 brings the Lincoln Tunnel and Manhattan within about an hour.
On the day
Morristown's schools sit on everything from a quiet lane to a county road, and downtown parking around the Green is enforced, so our drivers are given the loading point and do not stage on the street before a pickup. Jockey Hollow and the national park have their own bus rules and parking areas, which our drivers know. I-287 is the variable on afternoon returns; we time departures with that in mind and the driver calls the contact if the highway is slow.
