Welcome to Monroe Township New Jersey Real Estate, Schools and information. Monroe is located off Exit 8A New Jersey Turnpike……
Monroe Township NJ’s public library is a vibrant and useful facility. It is the perfect environment for learning and personal growth.

Monroe Township New Jersey borders South Brunswick Twp, Cranbury Township, Helmetta, Spotswood, Old Bridge Twp, Manalapan Township, Millstone Township, East Brunswick Township, East Windsor Township, and completely surrounds Jamesburg
Route 33 runs through the southern part of Monroe, which then travels through Millstone Township and East Windsor Township. Monroe has various bus stops that allow passengers to take a bus to the Port Authority Bus Terminal, adjacent to the Lincoln Tunnel. Monroe’s most busiest road during the peak hours are Forsgate Drive and Route 32, which connects to Exit 8A of the New Jersey Turnpike (Interstate 95). Monroe Township is known for the Turnpike’s division (where it divides into Inner Car Lanes & Outer Truck Lanes) and it’s dangerous merge, where the dual-dual configuration ends (5 lanes each direction; 2-3-3-2) and becomes a single roadway, consisting of three lanes in each direction (3-3); the merge is particularly difficult to travel through on Friday afternoons, summertime and on holidays. When the turnpike is congested (in the 8A vicinity), many motorists exit in Monroe Township at 8A and use 32 West to U.S. Route 130 south. Since 8A has become so busy, the turnpike interchange has been upgraded. The ramp (from the Turnpike) that merges onto 32 west, has been destroyed; a new two-lane ramp is now open that connects to County Route 535 (with a traffic signal) in South Brunswick Twp. Motorists must then take 535 south to gain access to 32 westbound.
The New Jersey Turnpike Authority had proposed to construct a west-east spur of the Turnpike, NJ 92. It would begin at US 1 just north of the intersection with
Ridge Road
in the Twp of South Brunswick and would terminate at Exit 8A in the area of the 8A toll gate in Monroe Township.
On December 1, 2006, the New Jersey Turnpike Authority terminated its plans to build the spur from Ridge & 1 in South Brunswick to 8A in Monroe. The Authority’s main focus will now be on widening the Turnpike between Exits 6 (in Mansfield Township) to 8A (in Monroe Township).
At the present time, there are plans to widen I-95/New Jersey Turnpike between Exit 9 in East Brunswick Township to Exit 8A in Monroe Township. This would change the dual-dual configuration (from 2-3-3-2) to “3-3-3-3.”
