Transportation

Roads and highways

As of May 2010, the township had a total of 93.45 miles (150.39 km) of roadways, of which 68.99 miles (111.03 km) were maintained by the municipality, 10.71 miles (17.24 km) by Mercer County, 9.80 miles (15.77 km) by the New Jersey Department of Transportation and 3.95 miles (6.36 km) by the New Jersey Turnpike Authority.[98]

A number of county routes, such as CR 539, 571, 535 pass through the township. Route 33 goes through East Windsor, and then through Robbinsville Township and Monroe Township. U.S. Route 130 also goes through East Windsor which then goes through Robbinsville and Cranbury. Interstate 195 is outside the municipality in neighboring Robbinsville, Upper Freehold, and Millstone Townships.[99]

In the late 1990s, the "Hightstown Bypass" (Route 133) was constructed. It starts at County Route 571 and terminates at I-95 (the New Jersey Turnpike). The entire highway is in East Windsor; there is a half-diamond interchange with One Mile Road, a three-quarter cloverleaf interchange with U.S. Route 130, and a full diamond interchange with Route 33.

The township also houses Exit 8 of the New Jersey Turnpike (Interstate 95). The exit used to use a five-lane tollgate that connected with Route 33, but was replaced with a new interchange (and a bigger tollgate) in February 2013 that now connects directly to Route 133.

The Turnpike was widened with the construction of new outer roadways ("truck lanes") that extended the "dual-dual" roadways south to Exit 6 (Mansfield Township) from its former end at Exit 8A (Monroe Township). This project was completed in early November 2014.[100]

East Windsor has a few bus stops on a route that passes through Monroe Township, and then makes its way to the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Midtown Manhattan.
