Highways of Bergen County, New Jersey


Bergen County primary route 6 begins at the base of Long Hill in Oakland along what was once part of CR 93. It continues across on Franklin Lake Road, which becomes Sicomac Road in Wyckoff, and then turns along Cedar Hill Avenue and Wyckoff Avenue to get into Ridgewood. It then follows a former section of CR 80 to get into Oradell and then is designated along CR 503 before descending New Milford Avenue (a tiny section under municipal control), crossing the Hackensack River, and following the former CR 74 to Alpine.
