Notes:

The early New Jersey road maps listed here are not what one normally would think of as a traditional road map. They consist of red lines showing improved roads overprinted on a base map by the N.J. Geological Survey. However, the title block includes the names of the Commissioner of Public Roads and the Supervisor of of Public Roads, so they have been included on this list. Also, there are indications that the maps have been removed from a book or cardboard cover.

 

Maps dated 1955 through 1964 are in the format of a 16 page booklet, with sections of the state highway map on different pages. The dimensions of the booklet are 8.5 x 11 inches, which then folds in half to the dimensions listed below.

 

In addition to the regular issue maps listed below, "Highway Maps" have also been issued in recent years. These maps contain the same cartography as the "Official Highway Map", at a slightly smaller scale. They fold up to approx. 7" x 9.5", and often are found inserted into tourism brochures. These maps are not detailed here.

 

The date of the 1997 map has been confirmed by NJDOT. John Haley took office in 1997.
