New Jersey Route 167 : ウィキペディア英語版 | New Jersey Route 167
Route 167 is a short, long unsigned state highway in Atlantic and Burlington Counties in New Jersey. The route is one of the few discontinuous state highways in New Jersey, split by wetlands, the Garden State Parkway and the Mullica River. Although the alignment is registered by the New Jersey Department of Transportation as highway, the amount of roadway is considerably shorter. The route begins at an intersection with U.S. Route 9 in Port Republic, where it continues along Old New York Road to an end of roadway at the Parkway embankment. Across the Mullica River, Route 167 continues at a gate for wetlands, heading northward to an intersection with U.S. Route 9 in Bass River Township. The route originated as part of New Jersey Route 4 during construction of a new state highway in 1917. Route 4 was built northward to the current Route 167 northern terminus in 1926, which was designated as part of U.S. Route 9 that year. The highway was long along an iron truss bridge. The route remained intact until construction of the Garden State Parkway and a new bridge over the Mullica River in 1948. When the bridge was finished, Route 9 was realigned off the roadway and the prior alignment became Route 167 during the New Jersey state highway renumbering. The route was split twice since 1953, first by the removal of the old Mullica River bridge in 1962 as part of a sale to the National Park Service for a refuge in Virginia, then the northern portion was dismantled except for a long alignment for a wetland mitigation project. Today, the route remains in half and the road is still maintained by the state. == Route description ==
Route 167's southern terminus is located at an intersection with U.S. Route 9 (New York Road) in the city of Port Republic. The route then intersects with the original alignment of New York Road, now known today as Old New York Road. Route 167 crosses over a stream, intersecting with a privately maintained roadway soon after. The route approaches the Garden State Parkway, but ends at a gate just nearby.〔 The purpose of the gate is to block off the roadway, which previously crossed underneath. After a gap in the roadway, which consists of a former bridge over the Mullica River dismantled and moved to Virginia and bridges removed for wetlands mitigation in the marshes just north, and the orphaned roads in between, which are visible from the Garden State Parkway to the west, Route 167 resurfaces in Bass River Township as a short dead-end street only approximately long, serving only a few homes. The route intersects with Bogan Lane and comes to an end at an intersection with U.S. Route 9.〔 The route's official speed limit, which is not signed, is 25 mph (30 km/h) at its southern segment and 50 mph (70 km/h) in its northern segment. However the Straight Line Diagrams produced by the Department of Transportation list both segments as 50 mph (70 km/h).〔
