Route 74
Industrial Freeway
New Jersey State Highway Routes
< NJ 73 NJ 75 >

Route 74 was a proposed limited access state highway in the U.S. state of New Jersey. It would have run from an interchange with Route 18 in East Brunswick to an interchange with Route 35 in Laurence Harbor. The freeway would have provided a much needed east-west connection between U.S. Route 9 and Route 18. Tentatively named the "Industrial Freeway", Route 74 was to be a 10.6 mile long four lane freeway, with eight exits. Also included in the proposal was a U.S. Route 9 connector to Route 35. Despite the plans for the freeway being shelved, the NJDOT hasn't officially taken it off their "Route Log". With the growing population in central New Jersey, the state may indeed resurrect this proposal in the future. Route 74 along with New Jersey Route 60 are the only remaining unbuilt freeways left on the official NJDOT "Route Log".
