The A&C Bus Corporation, also known as the Montgomery & Westside Independent Bus Owners Association, was an independent bus company headquartered in Jersey City, New Jersey.
The company was established in 1927. In July 2023, A&C announced that it would discontinue operations.[1][2] On October 28, 2023, the four routes then operated by A&C were taken over by NJ Transit Bus Operations.[3][4][5]
The company had four routes which served the West Side of the city.[6]
Prior to A&C Bus Corporation's operation of the Bergen Avenue route, the route was operated by Bergen Avenue IBOA. When Bergen Avenue IBOA was unable to make an insurance payment, it abruptly stopped running its only route on March 12, 2011, the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) granted emergency operating authority to A&C Bus Corporation. A&C Bus Corporation began operating the route on March 16, 2011, with no changes in bus fares, however it reduced operating hours to 6:30AM–10:00PM (running every half-hour). Since that time, the owners of Bergen Avenue IBOA stated that it intended on selling the rights to operate the route, however the NJDOT stated the company's rights ceased when it abruptly stopped operating with no warning to passengers.[8]
Prior to A&C Bus Corporation's assuming operations Route 4 was run by Red & Tan in Hudson County, which discontinued service on November 6, 2011. A&C Bus began operating the route between Greenville and Newport Centre Mall shortly after. It discontinued service on March 2, 2019, citing low ridership.[10][11] New Jersey Transit route 86 was extended to replace part of the route.[12] NJ Transit Route 1 was also rerouted to replace some of the former Route 4 service along Communipaw and Pacific Avenues beginning on June 22, 2019.[13][14]
The fleet was made up of buses leased from New Jersey Transit.
