New Jersey State Highway 139
New Jersey State Highway 139 is a
state highway in
New Jersey,
United States. It is the original access to the
Holland Tunnel from the
Pulaski Skyway. It was originally the business route for
United States Highway 1 and
United States Highway 9; the number 139 was chosen because someone thought the ampersand on "BUS 1&9" shields looked like a three.
Officially, NJ 139 multiplexes with Interstate 78 to the Holland Tunnel; the signage stops at I-78. As this section of I-78 has traffic lights, should I-78 be shortened to the freeway, the NJ Department of Transportation has this road covered.
