Highways of Bergen County, New Jersey

County Road 69

Bergen County Road 69 follows the Passaic River northward from North Arlington through Fair Lawn, and then turns up Lincoln Avenue along the border with Passaic County.

Once the 500 series of secondary roads was established, most of CR 69 was re-signed as part of CR 507. The section that remains as CR 69 begins where CR 507 turns off River Drive onto Maple Avenue in Fair Lawn.

CR 69 is posted as primary route 5.
