State Highways of New Jersey

When the state renumbered a lot of its roads in 1953 to eliminate many concurrencies and spur route designations, NJ 40 needed a new number because US 40 was assigned along parts of NJ 48 and NJ 42. Accordingly, this road became NJ 70, and its spur from Four Mile (in Woodland Township) to Manahawkin (in Stafford Township), the previous NJ S-40, became NJ 72. Also, the western terminus of the highway became its junction with NJ 38 in Pennsauken, half a mile shy of its original end at the junction with US 30 and US 130 to the west.

In addition, while the road was originally envisioned as heading up today’s SR 547 between Lakehurst and Lakewood, that highway was never taken over by the state. Instead, NJ 70 was extended northeastward along a new highway from Lakehurst to the Brielle Circle (now a signalized intersection), the junction with NJ 34 and NJ 35. The easternmost few miles of NJ 70 (between NJ 88 and NJ 35) were once part of NJ 34 (see the NJ 35 page for more details).

The bridge over the Manasquan River between Monmouth and Ocean counties is commemoratively named the September 11 Memorial Bridge, honoring the victims of the terrorist attacks on New York’s World Trade Center and the Pentagon on that date in 2001.
