"Always wear masks, it protects you and other people," Holubeck said. "Wash hands, sanitizer ... if you're sick stay home."
All NJ Transit riders and staff are required to wear masks and enhanced cleaning of buses and trains will continue.
Customers must use trash receptacles to discard used face coverings and gloves in NJ TRANSIT stations or on vehicles.
