📝The Chatham Borough Senior Citizen's Advisory Committee is seeking feedback regarding transportation needs in our community.
The survey is open to residents of all ages but we especially encourage seniors to provide their feedback. The results will be shared with the Advisory Committee, Borough government officials, and NJ Transit.
When responding to this survey you should respond for yourself as an individual, not your family. This will better allow us to analyze results by age category.
