New Ocean City Jitney Service Launches on Friday, May 27th, 2022
For the summer of 2022, Ocean City is launching a pilot program to provide jitney transportation to the boardwalk and downtown zones.

A second route will carry passengers to downtown Asbury Avenue 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. The city will use ridership data from summer 2022 to refine the service for the future.

TRACK YOUR RIDE
Download the “Jitney Surfer” app to track the location of approaching jitneys in real time. Future generations of the app will allow for the online purchase of tickets (but that service is currently available only to riders in Atlantic City … please do not use that function for Ocean City ridership). An easier way to access “Jitney Surfer” and to provide comprehensive information for everything you need to know about enjoying Ocean City is through the Ocean City Vacation (OCNJ) app. Download Jitney Surfer on Apple.
