Highways of Bergen County, New Jersey


Bergen County Road 40 originally connected the Passaic Street bridge between Passaic and Garfield with the Bergen Turnpike bridge between Little Ferry and Ridgefield Park. However, starting in the 1930s a gap existed in the road, as the Erie Railroad crossing between Hasbrouck Heights and Teterboro is closed, and also because US 46 overlays the original CR 40 in Teterboro and South Hackensack.

As a result, Bergen County has split the old CR 40 into three routes. Passaic Street in Garfield and Lodi is now CR 61A, while Main Street in South Hackensack and Little Ferry is CR 48. This is the remaining section, Union Avenue in Lodi and Williams Avenue in Hasbrouck Heights.
