Welcome

This web site is dedicated to
the completion of Route 55.

The roads extending from the current southern terminus of State Highway Route 55 through Maurice River, Dennis and Middle Townships are inadequate to accommodate the traffic loading conditions.

Year 2005 traffic estimates generated by previous transportation studies predict limited spot congestion for an average day, but severe, widespread congestion during summer weekend periods." This congestion along with the outdated roadway design has resulted in a highway that has a high frequency of accidents. Many accidents and deaths occur annually along Routes 47 / 347.

Resolutions of Support for Route 55 have been received from the following elected officials and government agencies:

Senator James Cafiero     Borough of Stone Harbor
Assemblyman Nicholas Asselta Township of Upper
Borough of Avalon Borough of West Cape May
City of Cape May Borough of West Wildwood
Borough of Cape May Point City of Wildwood
Township of Dennis Borough of Wildwood Crest
Township of Lower Borough of Woodbine
City of North Wildwood

Cape May County League of Municipalities
Board of Chosen Freeholders County of Cumberland
