Route 45 is a state highway in the U.S. state of New Jersey. It runs 28.51 miles (45.88 km) from Route 49 in Salem to U.S. Route 130 in Westville.
In the late 1960's, the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) proposed construction of a 10-mile-long, $20 million freeway along the NJ 45 corridor in Gloucester County which would have extended from Exit 24 of Interstate 295 in Woodbury, to be completed by 1985. The New Jersey Department of Transportation never followed through on this proposal, instead proposing a widening project to create a four-lane divided highway for the full length of NJ 45 from Woodbury to Salem, of which only a small portion was ever completed.[1]
