Highways of Bergen County, New Jersey



Bergen County Road 38 starts from Midland Avenue in Garfield and cuts across the "lost" portion of South Hackensack before passing alongside the old Curtiss-Wright plant and making its way across Hasbrouck Heights.

An unusual feature is that, for 0.4 mile, the road bears two different names. It is commonly known as Passaic Street, but since Lodi already has a Passaic Street, its side of the street (opposite the former Curtiss-Wright property) is called Terhune Avenue.
