Transit to Monroe NJ on weekends
This is my first question on this site, sorry if it isn't appropriate.
I'm trying to find the best way to get from Brooklyn, NY to Monroe, NJ, or at least as close as possible, by public transit, on weekends. Monroe is big, but I don't want to give addresses for obvious reasons. It's near exit 8A on the turnpike.
The best I could seem to find was New Brunswick station, which is 26 minutes away by car. I'm having a hard time believing that that is the best one can do, but I'm out of ideas.
Best Answer
I don't know if this will be useful to anyone else, but I found a bus stop in East Brunswick 12 minutes away on RT 18. Only saves $2.10 for a senior citizen, but for other travellers it saves $3. Probably will use that if the usual traveller brings company.

Answer 2
According to this unofficial New Jersey bus map, Middlesex County operates a local bus service, possibly called either MCAT or Community Shuttle. The M1 and M6 routes appear to serve Monroe Township, and connect to rail service at New Brunswick and Princeton Junction respectively.
Their website doesn't seem to be working for me right now, so I can't confirm this or find the official schedules, but it may be worth investigating as another option. Anyone who finds more details is welcome to edit them in.
