New Jersey Route 91 - Route Description

Route Description

Route 91 begins at an interchange with U.S. Route 1 in the North Brunswick Township, New Jersey community of Adams. The route heads northward as Jersey Avenue, passing several fields and ponds along a U.S. Route 1 parallel. A short distance later, Route 91 enters the industrial district of North Brunswick, where it reaches a partial interchange with Route 91 Connector, a spur from U.S. Route 1 Northbound to the Route 91 mainline. Paralleling the Northeast Corridor tracks to the west, Jersey Avenue passes through a small corporate park in North Brunswick. A short distance later, Route 91 intersects with Middlesex County Route 680 (How Lane), which connects Route 91 with nearby New Jersey Route 27 and New Jersey Route 26. Upon crossing How Lane, Route 91 crosses the township line and enters the city of New Brunswick.

Route 91 continues northward along Jersey Avenue, passing through the industrial districts in the southeastern portion of the city. With the Northeast Corridor tracks nearby, Route 91 intersects with Triangle Road, where it meets a park & ride and the service road to the Jersey Avenue New Jersey Transit train station. There, the highway also crosses a railroad spur from the train line. The highway continues, passing to the east of a high school and some commercial buildings, before the Route 91 designation terminates at an intersection with Van Dyke Avenue. Jersey Avenue continues into New Brunswick's center as Middlesex County Route 693.
