Speed Restrictions Remain in Effect

The Emergency Traffic Regulation Order that temporarily lowers all posted speed limits to 35 miles per hour on Interstate and State highways in New Jersey remains in effect on the following roads:

• All Interstate highways in New Jersey
• All S. and State highways in New Jersey
• The New Jersey Turnpike
• The Garden State Parkway
• The Atlantic City Expressway

NJDOT crews and contractors are expected to work throughout the day to continue cleanup efforts on Interstate and State highways to ensure roads are clear and safe. However, low temperatures causing refreeze and winds blowing snow may cause roads to be slippery. Road conditions can change quickly.

Avoid unnecessary travel and let crews continue to clean the roads. If you must drive, use caution and follow the 35mph emergency speed limit.
