New Jersey Route 67

View north at the south end of Route 67 at Route 5 in Fort Lee

Route 67 begins at an intersection with New Jersey Route 5 in the community of Fort Lee. The route heads northward as Palisade Avenue, crossing on a small interchange past commercial businesses and residential homes. The highway continues, crossing directly as the main road in the community, and passing through a large residential district. Route 67 begins to turn northeastward, passing to the west of several cliffside apartment high rises and the local tennis courts. The high-rises and residential homes continue to surrounded the highway for a distance, until reaching a fork in the highway with Lemoine Avenue. There, Palisade Avenue forks to the right while Route 67 heads to the left along Lemoine. After the fork, the highway becomes more residential and commercial, with the cliffside high-rises following Palisade Avenue to the east. A short distance, Route 67 forks again with Schlosser Street, intersecting with County Route 12 (Main Street).[3]

Route 67 and Lemoine Avenue continues northward as a four-lane boulevard through Fort Lee, reaching Bridge Plaza, which serves commercial industry around the George Washington Bridge. The route then crosses over Interstate 95, U.S. Routes 1, 9 and 46 as a three-lane truss bridge. After crossing the highways, Route 67 and Lemoine Avenue continue northward out of Bridge Plaza and returns as a four-lane local boulevard in the middle of high-rises and residential homes. Route 67 passes the local high school before reaching an interchange with U.S. Route 9W, the Palisades Interstate Parkway (Route 445) and Route 445S (the Fort Lee Spur), where the designation ends. Lemoine Avenue continues northward as U.S. Route 9W.[3]

The alignment of Route 67 originates as a portion of State Highway Route 18N, a state highway that survived the 1927 state highway renumbering from its commissioning in 1923.[6][7] State Highway Route 18N lasted only two years after the 1927 renumbering,[4] being designed as part of State Highway Route S-1 and State Highway Route 1 and State Highway Route S-1-A, which was designated along current Route 67 as a spur of Route S-1.[8] State Highway Route S-1-A remained intact until the second state highway renumbering on January 1, 1953, when it was re-designated as Route 67.[5][9] The alignment of Route 67 has remained virtually untouched since the 1953 renumbering.[10] On December 8, 1977, the New Jersey Department of Transportation approved a measure that Route 67 in downtown Fort Lee was declared a No Passing Zone.[11]

The entire route is in Fort Lee, Bergen County.
