That means several agencies will remain closed until an agreement is reached including state parks (Liberty State Park/Island Beach State Park), MVC agencies, tourist welcome centers and more.

Agencies that are not affected by the shutdown include state police, state correction facilities, child welfare services, state hospitals/treatment facilities, NJ Transit, state lottery, casinos and any agencies that would impact the health and welfare of citizens.
