During reconstruction of the traffic circle between Routes 38, 41, and 73 into an interchange by the 1970s, Route 41 was relocated to a new alignment that bypassed the original traffic circle and extended north a short distance on Kings Highway to just south of the CR 608 (Lenola Road) intersection in [[Maple Shade Township, New Jersey|Maple Shade Township]]. The [[Ellisburg Circle]] at the intersection of Routes 41, 70, and 154 was reconstructed into an intersection with [[jughandle]]s and traffic lights by the 1990s. This reconstruction involved realigning Route 41 to form a brief concurrency with Route 154 just south of Route 70.<ref name="statefarm">{{cite map|publisher=[[State Farm Insurance]]|title= State Farm Road Atlas |year=1983|cartography=[[Rand McNally]]}}</ref><ref name="rm">{{cite map|publisher=[[Rand McNally]]|title=United States-Canada-Mexico Road Atlas|year=1996}}</ref> In the early 2000s, the Route 41 interchange with Route 42 in Deptford Township was, along with the [[County Route 544 (New Jersey)|CR 544]] interchange with Route 42, reconstructed to ease traffic movements in the area.<ref name="relief">{{cite news|title=Relief Proposed for Traffic Headache|last=Laughlin|first=Jason|date=April 21, 2000|newspaper=The Courier-Post}}</ref> Signs for Route 41 Temporary and CR 573 still remain along this stretch of Route 41, which today is officially considered to be a part of mainline Route 41.<ref name=SLD/><ref name=gsv1>{{google maps |url=https://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=route+41+and+route+47+deptford+nj&daddr=E+Clements+Bridge+Rd+to:39.916583,-75.005722+to:Lenola+RD.+%26+Kings+Highway&geocode=%3BFUIkYAIdBpuG-w%3B%3BFUGUYQId8QSI-yHdpdKvB1Y0cQ&hl=en&mra=dpe&mrcr=0&mrsp=2&sz=11&via=1,2&sll=39.866534,-75.037994&sspn=0.247703,0.439453&ie=UTF8&t=h&ll=39.893966,-75.040398&spn=0.00698,0.027466&z=15&layer=c&cbll=39.89398,-75.0404&panoid=t4jG-qgMVZRQ3QJO4o1UAw&cbp=11,93.92764705729105,,0,3.045312500000001 |title=170 Kings Hwy W.
