The New Jersey State and County Route Newsletter
Issue 2 – Tuesday, December 19,2006

Intro Issue

WikiProject New York State routes has started running a newsletter for now to great success, and, after some consideration, I've decided to launch a similar effort for the New Jersey County and State Routes WikiProject. This could prove to be a very effective medium of communication between the members of the groups, and with increased communication comes the possibility of increased production.

News from the New Jersey Department of Transportation
  1. On December 1, 2006, the New Jersey Turnpike Authority terminated it's plans to build the spur from Ridge & 1 in South Brunswick to 8A in Monroe. Since most of the 92 funds had already been diverted to the Turnpike Authority's main concern, it made more sense to cancel the spur due to lack of funding. The Authority's main focus is widening the Turnpike between Exits 6 (in Mansfield Twp) to 8A (in Monroe Township).
Project News
  1. County Route 676 (Middlesex County, New Jersey) became the first article on WP:NJSCR to reach good article status and only the fourth U.S. Road article to reach such status, except Pulaski Skyway which is a featured article. Late update: DUE TO LACK OF INFORMATION, THIS ARTICLE IS DOWN TO B.
