Route 32 is a state highway in New Jersey, United States. It is a short connector that extends 1.18 miles between U.S. Route 130 in South Brunswick Township and the New Jersey Turnpike at Exit 8A in Monroe Township. The highway's eastern terminus is somewhat unclear. Signage suggests that 32 terminates after crossing the Turnpike overpass at its eastern end. Some maps suggest that Route 32 continues east as far as the traffic light for CR 619.[2] However, the New Jersey Department of Transportation straight-line diagram indicates that Route 32 terminates mid-way on the Turnpike overpass; this point is also where maintenance of Forsgate Drive changes from the state of New Jersey to Middlesex County.[1][3]

Due to heavy traffic on Route 32, the ramp from the Turnpike to Route 32 westbound was destroyed. In its place, a new, two-lane ramp to County Route 535 was built. Motorists must then take CR 535 south to access NJ 32 westbound.

Route 32 had been planned to be part of a new turnpike spur (numbered Route 92) terminating at U.S. Route 1 in South Brunswick Township, but these plans were cancelled by the Turnpike Authority on December 1, 2006.
