Route 303 was a proposed state highway in the northeastern portion of New Jersey. The route originally was defined to go from an intersection with current-day New Jersey Route 4 in Teaneck, then progressing northward through several local communities before connecting to the New York state line at Northvale. At the state line, Route 303 was to intertwine and become the current-day New York State Route 303. The alignment runs along the current alignment of County Route 505, which becomes NY 303 at the state line.

It was first planned in 1938 as Route S4D (a spur of Route 4), and once the 1953 renumbering of highways occurred, the S-4-D designation was replaced by NJ 303. However, the highway was never assigned and remains unused to this day.

    “To motorists bound to or from the Jersey shore, Perth Amboy consists of five traffic lights that sometimes tie up week-end traffic for miles. While cars creep along or come to a prolonged halt, drivers lean out to discuss with each other this red menace to freedom of the road.”
    —For the State of New Jersey, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “The route through childhood is shaped by many forces, and it differs for each of us. Our biological inheritance, the temperament with which we are born, the care we receive, our family relationships, the place where we grow up, the schools we attend, the culture in which we participate, and the historical period in which we live—all these affect the paths we take through childhood and condition the remainder of our lives.”
    —Robert H. Wozniak (20th century)
