New Jersey Route 172

New Jersey Route 172

Route 172 is a short state highway in New Brunswick, New Jersey, United States. The designation runs along the southernmost leg of George Street, which is county and city-maintained the rest of the way. Route 172 is 0.81 miles (1.30 km) long, serving as a connector from an interchange with New Jersey Route 18 to an intersection with County Route 527 and Middlesex County Route 672. The highway was assigned in the 1950s, when nearby Route 18 was realigned onto a new freeway over Burnet Street in New Brunswick. Route 172 underwent a major upgrade during the reconstruction of Route 18, including a roundabout at an intersection with Middlesex County Route 617, and a brand-new interchange with the local lanes of Route 18.

Famous quotes containing the words jersey and/or route:

    New Jersey gives us glue.
    Howard Dietz (1896–1983)

    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)
