Highways of Bergen County, New Jersey


County Road 49

Bergen County Road 49 begins at the Bergen Turnpike in Little Ferry and continues up into New Milford and Bergenfield, and then over to Englewood.

Much of the southernmost portion of the road is also designated CR 503. In addition, large parts of the former CR 68, New Bridge Road and Liberty Street, have been re-designated as CR 49, so that CR 68 is a shell of its former self and doesn’t even connect with CR 49 – and CR S-68 runs into CR 49 now, rather than CR 68.

The official NJDOT diagram for this road now inventories it from west to east; prior to its assumption of CR 68, the lower part of the road was inventoried from north to south.

Along New Bridge Road on the Teaneck-New Milford line, traffic is diverted to Roemer Avenue, a more direct line. However, a 0.39-mile stretch of New Bridge Road bypassed by Roemer Avenue is still designated as part of CR 49.

North of the CR 503 split, this road is designated as primary route 10.
