CR 501 is mostly overlaid atop the old CR 33. It utilizes sections of both NJ 63 and NJ 93 in Bergen County before heading north to the New York state line at Piermont, paralleling the route of the Northern Railroad. Through Englewood, Grand Avenue (north of Van Nostrand Avenue) and Engle Street are one-way northbound; southbound traffic entering Englewood uses Hudson Street, Dean Street, and Van Nostrand Avenue. Bergen County logs show this route as CR 501A and indicate county maintenance, though NJDOT continues to show municipal maintenance for this road.
