The MOM Network calls for service along the Red Bank line back to Lakehurst , the County wants it to go to Forked River which is doable.

Burlington City 4,809 jobs in the city while Burlington Township has 11,148. Job density may be a factor here as Burlington City is rather small in geographic area. I know one of the big employers in the area is Burlington Coat Factory.
