New Jersey Route 156
Route 156 is a 1.18-mile (1.90 km) long state highway in New Jersey, United States. It is a short connector in Yardville-Groveville, New Jersey, which is part of Hamilton Township, Mercer County. It is an old two-lane alignment of U.S. Route 130 that was bypassed by a new multi-lane highway a short distance to the east in the 1950s, and designated just before the 1953 renumbering. The route interchanges with Route 130 at both termini, carrying local traffic to Yardville, a portion of Hamilton Township. The route has remained mainly intact since 1953.

Famous quotes containing the words jersey and/or route:
“Ladies and gentlemen, I have a grave announcement to make. Incredible as it may seem, strange beings who landed in New Jersey tonight are the vanguard of an invading army from Mars.”
—Orson Welles (1915–1984)
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
