I live in New Jersey and support the plan to move it here. Yes, it will make some people's commutes longer, but it will also make others shorter by reducing congestion in the car tunnels. If we had new Hudson River tunnels or a 7 subway extension it would run with short headways during rush hour only adding a few minutes for the transfer, but reducing the time delays at the tunnel bottlenecks. I see the desire to keep the bus terminal in Manhattan is the obvious New York centric point of view since they desire to keep the Billions in construction costs coming from both states instead of letting New Jersey get the money.
