Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024

(a) The following routes are hereinafter designated as the "New Jersey National Network" for travel by double-trailer truck combinations and 102-inch-wide standard trucks:

1. All State highway routes with the exception of those listed in Appendix A, incorporated herein by reference, approximately 1,706 miles;

2. All county "500" series roads with the exception of those listed in Appendix B, incorporated herein by reference, approximately 1,735 miles;

3. Those county "600" series roads listed under Appendix C, incorporated herein by reference, approximately 80 miles; and

4. The Garden State Parkway south of Exit 105, approximately 106 miles. Use of this route is subject to the rules of the New Jersey Highway Authority, now merged with the New Jersey Turnpike Authority.

(b) The routes as set forth in (a) above were selected on the basis of the following criteria:

1. They are State highways, county "500" series roads or, in limited cases, county "600" series roads;

2. They connect at both ends with other access routes (although spur routes are possible for geographic or other reasons);

3. They have travel lane widths of 11 feet or greater for 90 percent or more of the segment length. Lanes which are only 10 feet wide are counted as 11 feet wide when located on four-lane divided highways with shoulders;

4. Within rural areas, as established by the Federal Highway Administration under the Federal-Aid Highway Program Manual, Volume 4, Chapter 6, Section 3, they may have 10-foot lane widths with an eight-foot shoulder for 90 percent or more of the segment length; and

5. The general criteria within this subsection may be superseded in particular instances by determinations made on the basis of engineering judgment.

(c) Designation of any route in this chapter as a New Jersey Access Network travel route for doubletrailer truck combinations and 102-inch-wide standard trucks is a designation that pertains to permissible widths only. Such designation does not always guarantee free movement of all doubletrailer truck combinations and 102-inch-wide standard trucks. Some truck movements may be restricted on a route because of route or bridge weight restrictions and/or vertical clearance restrictions.
