FLORHAM PARK, NJ, UNITED STATES, October 2, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Morris County (NJ) Chamber of Commerce will host a Transportation Update with New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) Commissioner Priya Jain Thursday, Oct. 8, at 11:30 a.m. at the Park Avenue Club in Florham Park. Jain will discuss projects that maintain and improve New Jersey’s transportation infrastructure. This overview will highlight the importance transportation initiatives – from strategic planning to infrastructure upgrades – have on the region’s economic future.
The event also will feature a panel discussion focusing on Beyond Mobility: How Transportation Agencies Are Shaping New Jersey’s Economic Future. Transportation agencies play a critical role in New Jersey’s economic future and industry leaders will discuss how infrastructure investments, transit-oriented development, emerging mobility technologies and innovative partnerships are enhancing business growth, workforce access, freight movement and regional competitiveness across the state.
The panelists are expected to include: Genevieve Clifton, director of multimodal and maritime resources at NJDOT; Aaron Sherburne, deputy director of aviation planning at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey; and Gagandeep Singh, senior vice president of real estate, technology & business intelligence at NJ TRANSIT.

“The state of New Jersey’s transportation system, including roads, highways and bridges, and mass transit, impacts every business in some way,” said Meghan Hunscher, chamber president. “From manufacturing and warehouse/distribution, to retail and hospitality, to the services sector, transportation affects everything from delivery of products to the ease of consumers to get to businesses to the overall economy. If you own, run or work for a business in Morris County, you will find this discussion very informative.”
