New Jersey Administrative Code
Title 16 - TRANSPORTATION
Chapter 47 - STATE HIGHWAY ACCESS MANAGEMENT CODE
Appendix B-1 - DESIRABLE TYPICAL SECTIONS FOR STATE HIGHWAYS

Universal Citation: NJ Admin Code B-1
Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024

This chart shows the desirable typical section descriptions for State highways and the maximum acceptable expanded width of State highway segments. The width of lanes, shoulders, parking, border areas, and ROW shown are those derived from the standards for desirable geometric design elements. The ROW width needed for the construction of the highway improvement may be less than the dimensions shown when less than desirable geometric design elements are used.

A designation of 1A means that social, environmental, or economic constraints may limit the desirability of State highway segment expansion. If compelling safety needs dictate, the Department will construct, or require a lot or site owner to construct, highway improvements consistent with applicable design standards.
