	New Jersey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		New Jersey is bordered on the north and northeast by New York; on the east by the Atlantic Ocean; on the south by Delaware; and on the west by Pennsylvania.
		New Jersey is a politically competitive state; the governorship alternated between the parties from the election of Richard J. Hughes in 1961 until Democrat Jon Corzine was elected to replace a Democrat in 2005; the legislature has also switched hands, and one house was evenly divided from 1999–2001.
		New Jersey is the birthplace of many modern inventions such as: FM radio, the motion picture camera, the lithium battery, the light bulb, transistors, and the electric train.

	New Jersey Turnpike - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The New Jersey Turnpike is a toll road in New Jersey and is one of the most heavily traveled highways in the United States.
		In November 2004, acting New Jersey Governor Richard Codey advocated a plan to widen the Turnpike, extending the dual-dual configuration 20.1 miles south from Exit 6 to Exit 8A, by 2011, when the Pennsylvania Turnpike is supposed to complete an interchange that will connect its road to the existing I-95 in Bristol Twp., PA.
		Turnpike rest areas comprise most of the Roy Rogers and Big Boy (which isn't a New Jersey chain but is featured in the rest stops) fast-food restaurant locations in New Jersey.

	New Jersey Expressways and Tollways
		In New Jersey, the route of I-95 splits in two places, resulting in the existance of an "Eastern Route" and a "Western Route".
		The Eastern Route cuts to the south and east of Trenton utilizing toll roads (the Pennsylvania Turnpike (I-276) and the New Jersey Turnpike (I-95)).
		The New Jersey Turnpike mainline from Exit 7A to Exit 15, the New Jersey Turnpke Northern Extension, and the Bergen-Passaic Expressway connect continuously with both split routes.

	New Jersey Turnpike-Pennsylvania Extension (I-276)
		To accommodate the expected traffic increases, the mainline New Jersey Turnpike was widened from four to six lanes from EXIT 6 to the northern terminus at EXIT 18.
		When Congress de-designated the uncompleted section of I-95 in New Jersey, the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) was directed to designate the Pennsylvania Extension of the New Jersey Turnpike and the New Jersey Turnpike mainline from EXIT 6 north to I-287 as I-95.
		Beginning in New Castle, Delaware, the "express" I-95 would comprise of the Delaware Memorial Bridge, the current I-295 approaches, and the length of the New Jersey Turnpike north to EXIT 6.

	New Jersey Turnpike (I-95)
		It may not be the oldest modern turnpike in the country, but the New Jersey Turnpike has earned that place in American culture that few other roads achieve.
		North of the Raritan River, the turnpike is "strictly business." Industrial parks, distribution facilities, generating stations and refineries mark the northerly 35 miles or so of the turnpike, almost always within view of the Manhattan skyline.
		Design standards on the turnpike were ahead of their time (e.g., long acceleration-deceleration lanes, long sight distances, highly visible signing), but are standard practice on today's superhighways.

	Garden State Parkway
		On April 14, 1952, the State Legislature enacted legislation to create the New Jersey Highway Authority, which was to construct, operate and maintain a self-sufficient toll parkway from Paramus to Cape May. Orrie de Nooyer was appointed as the first executive director of the New Jersey Highway Authority.
		In northern New Jersey, the "metropolitan section" of the parkway serves as a functional commuter highway and does not appear different from the expressways built in the 1950's.
		The entire length of the extension between NJ 17 in Paramus and the New York State Thruway was $21.3 million, $17.0 million of which was borne by the New Jersey Highway Authority and the remainder by the New York State Thruway Authority.

		Driving onto the New Jersey Turnpike is like entering a new world; a world without stoplights or sharp curves; a world created especially for motoring pleasure.
		The Jersey 'Pike would be built from scratch, right up the gut of the most crowded transportation corridor in America.
		And where Driscoll expected "the beauty of the real New Jersey," the Turnpike's most vivid scenery is in Elizabeth, where the hellish fires of oil refineries light up enormous, white, spooky storage tanks.

		That leaves the crown to the New Jersey Turnpike, a supersized ribbon of asphalt and angst that bisects the Garden State, the subject of a six-page tribute by David Holzman in the February issue of Car and Driver.
		The turnpike is a swaggering giant that plows through the industrial heartland of the East Coast, overpowering even the mighty landscape of refineries, airports, and tank farms that have the temerity to get in its path.
		Yesterday, Charles Hill made the unsupportable assertion that with the exception of Route 66, the New Jersey Turnpike was “the most famous road in America.”; You may participate in that debate over on Dustbury.com.

	CNN.com - Travel - New Jersey Turnpike goes cashless, gives off-peak discounts - September 29, 2000
		Turnpike Executive Director Edward Gross said the discounts are intended to cut congestion on the highway, which handles 600,000 vehicles a day.
		"What the turnpike is doing, I think, is a forerunner of what we'll see in the New York metropolitan area in the future," said Jeffrey Zupan, a senior fellow at the nonprofit Regional Plan Association in New York.
		As the New Jersey Turnpike opens the cash-free lanes along its entire length, drivers with E-ZPass won't have to reach for money on toll roads stretching from western New York and Pennsylvania, through New Jersey and right down to the Delaware-Maryland line.

		From the gray-flannel-suit diligence that built it, to the mixture of necessity, practicality and venality that maintains it, the New Jersey Turnpike proves to be an enthralling though unlikely subject.
		Long the subject of scorn and humor, often (mistakenly) viewed by out-of-state travelers as the embodiment of New Jersey environment, the turnpike may well be America's most apt symbol, say the authors--that of industry and efficiency and functionalism gone awry.
		From the decayed industrial north to the straight, flat and boring stretches in South Jersey, the Turnpike is not a great public relations tool for the state of New Jersey.

	New Jersey Roads - I-95/N.J. Turnpike
		The newer western spur of the Turnpike is signed to the George Washington Bridge but is actually NJ 95W internally.
		The purpose of signing it as the mainline is to keep traffic on the eastern spur going mainly to the Lincoln Tunnel on NJ 495, which once came off of the Turnpike as I-495 before the Mid-Manhattan Expressway was killed between it and I-495 on Long Island.
		The Turnpike was open well before I-295 had gotten much farther than a few isolated segments of US 130 freeway.

		Her New York editors had all but lost their patience with her by this time; her manuscript was long overdue, and they were tired of paying her expenses.

		I-295 comes in from the west and heads off to the northeast, the un-numbered New Jersey Turnpike starts at the Tollgate, US 40 comes in from the west with I-295 and goes east just south of the Turnpike and US 130 heads off to the north.
		These interchanges have all of the hallmarks of 'New Jersey' design, with interstate compatibility where it is needed while the other needed ramps are seemingly 'jumbled' together in just the right ways.
		The Turnpike is then a DIRECT and very speedy route (picking up I-95 along the way) all the way to the George Washington Bridge, which in turn takes I-95 into the Bronx on to the New England states.

		From the outset, however, the settlers were at odds with the Meadowlands, felling the cedar forests for houses and corduroy roads, draining what land they could, and, always, always, dumping their garbage there.
		Although new laws have stopped much of the dumping, humanity and the meadowlands are still skirmishing.
		On one of my return trips, I got on the Turnpike at the Route three ramp and put a Jimmy Buffet tape in to combat the boredom of yet another four-hour drive home.
