Route 347 is a state highway in New Jersey, United States. It is a bypass of Route 47 in Dennis, New Jersey and Maurice River, New Jersey, that extends 8.58 miles (13.81 kilometers) ending at Route 47 at both ends. Route 347 is a bypass to the part of Route 47 that runs through Delmont. The alignment of Route 347 is preferred to Route 47, and therefore gets the majority of traffic flow. Because of this Route 47 northbound has been truncated and must utilize a connecting road at its northern intersection with Route 347. Traffic must make a right, then another left to continue on Route 47 northbound. It has been considered that Route 347 may be partially used for a potential future extension of Route 55 to lessen impact on the fragile wildlife areas.[citation needed] The highway is completely locally maintained.
