The Midtown Bridge, which was built to accommodate the Public Service trolley service to the Hudson River, became a highway bridge in the late 1930s after the trolley line was discontinued. Main Street in Bogota, over which the trolley line ran, was extended over the trolley right-of-way to the bridge, and Salem Street in Hackensack was likewise extended. Another new road in Hackensack, Midtown Bridge Approach, carries eastbound traffic up to the bridge. The one-way stretch of Salem Street between the bridge and River Street is now CR 56A.
For the bulk of the highway previously listed as CR 56, see CR 12.
