County Route 514 wouldn't be considered major at Route 1 in Edison would it?

I like the US Route 1 in NJ page and the US 9 page, very good Nextbarker 05:49, 10 December 2006 (UTC)nextbarker

[edit] Route 130 and 171

I added a NJ 171 shield next to the US 130 shield in the major junction box, is that ok? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nextbarker (talk • contribs) 21:54, 10 December 2006 (UTC).

No, it's a minor stub highway that doesn't offer much other than a back way into New Brunswick. It's not a major junction. (On top of that, it makes it so the junction doesn't fit on a single line.)
I kept the Garden State Parkway junction, but remember since this is an article on US 1 in New Jersey, linking to Woodbridge, NJ instead of just Woodbridge is redundant. Also, since this is an article on US 1, not the Parkway, the note you added to the intersection list was wrong, since US 1 northbound and southbound both have entrances and exits for the Parkway. If you want to add a correct note, that's fine, but it's not absolutely necessary -- an intersection list isn't the same as an exit list. -- NORTH talk 23:46, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Route 1 at GSP

yy, but Route 1 both ways has only one Parkway northbound entrance no southbound parkway ramp, that's what I meant.

And the GSP has only one direct exit for US Route 1 GSP South Exit 130. There's no northbound exit 130.

Right but "Southbound exit, northbound entrance" is what it says on the GSP list. It means "Exit on GSP southbound, entrance on GSP northbound." A note on the US 1 list needs to be written from the perspective of US 1. Your new edit is still written from the perspective of the Parkway; I'll edit it again myself to be a little clearer what I mean. -- NORTH talk 05:17, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

I think I get the picture, Route 1 only has a northbound entrance both ways, but a southbound ramp to US 1. But if people want to get to Route 1 from the GSP North, do they take exit 127? They could take 287 to US 1 or Route 9 to 1, which is way out of the way.

Yes, to US 1 North, Exit 127 to US 9 North. To US 1 South, Exit 127 to NJ 440 (I-287) West to US 1. -- NORTH talk 06:06, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

All right then, I'll just read myself, I won't ask any more questions, I'll look at the info myself, I won't add anymore shields.

Would NJ 29 be considered major on US 1 in Trenton, it's the last exit before the Trenton-Morrisville Bridge?

[edit] U.S. 1 at Route 29

Would NJ 29 be considered major on US 1 in Trenton, it's the last exit before the Trenton-Morrisville Bridge?

I removed US 206 since there's not actually a junction there and kept NJ 29 in its place. Frankly I think NJ 33 is a better choice since it's a more major route and it connects to US 206, but NJ 29 is okay instead since it's a freeway-to-freeway interchange. -- NORTH talk 23:14, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merging Trenton Freeway

I have suggested that the article Trenton Freeway be merged into this article. That article is short and the information can be provided in the route description for this article. Dough4872 (talk) 01:03, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
