'''Route&nbsp;28''' is a [[List of state highways in New Jersey|state highway]] in the central part of [[New Jersey]], United States that is {{convert|26.44|mi|km|2|abbr=on}} long. Its western terminus is at [[U.S. Route 22 in New Jersey|U.S. Route&nbsp;22]] (US&nbsp;22) in [[Bridgewater Township, New Jersey|Bridgewater Township]], [[Somerset County, New Jersey|Somerset County]], while its eastern terminus is at [[New Jersey Route 27|Route&nbsp;27]] in [[Elizabeth, New Jersey|Elizabeth]], [[Union County, New Jersey|Union County]]. From its western terminus, Route&nbsp;28 heads east through [[Raritan, New Jersey|Raritan]], intersecting [[County Route 567 (New Jersey)|County Route&nbsp;567]] (CR&nbsp;567) and then [[U.S. Route 202 in New Jersey|US&nbsp;202]] and [[U.S. Route 206|US&nbsp;206]] at the [[Somerville Circle]] before heading through the central part of [[Somerville, New Jersey|Somerville]]. Past Somerville, the route has interchanges with [[Interstate 287]] (I-287) in Bridgewater Township before intersecting many 500-series county roads including [[County Route 525 (New Jersey)|CR&nbsp;525]] and [[County Route 527 (New Jersey)|CR&nbsp;527]] in [[Bound Brook, New Jersey|Bound Brook]], [[County Route 529 (New Jersey)|CR&nbsp;529]] in [[Dunellen, New Jersey|Dunellen]], [[Middlesex County, New Jersey|Middlesex County]], [[County Route 531 (New Jersey)|CR&nbsp;531]] in [[Plainfield, New Jersey|Plainfield]], Union County, and [[County Route 509 (New Jersey)|CR&nbsp;509]] in [[Westfield, New Jersey|Westfield]]. Route&nbsp;28 continues east, intersecting [[New Jersey Route 59|Route&nbsp;59]] and the [[Garden State Parkway]] in [[Cranford, New Jersey|Cranford]] before heading to Elizabeth, where it crosses [[New Jersey Route 439|Route&nbsp;439]] before ending at Route&nbsp;27. Route&nbsp;28 is a two- to four-lane road its entire length that passes through suburban areas and runs within a close distance of [[New Jersey Transit]]’s [[Raritan Valley Line]] for much of its length.

Prior to 1927, Route&nbsp;28 was known as '''Route&nbsp;9''', which was designated in 1917 to run from [[Phillipsburg, New Jersey|Phillipsburg]] east to Elizabeth. With the creation of the [[U.S. Highway System]] in 1926, US&nbsp;22 was designated along with Route&nbsp;28. In 1927, most of pre-1927 Route&nbsp;9 became Route&nbsp;28, with the exception of the route through Elizabeth, which became '''Route 27-28 Link''' as Route&nbsp;28 followed present-day Route&nbsp;439 to the [[Goethals Bridge]]. Also legislated at this time was a [[spur route|spur]] of Route&nbsp;28 called [[New Jersey Route S28|Route&nbsp;S28]], which became [[New Jersey Route 18|Route&nbsp;18]] in 1953. By 1941, US&nbsp;22 was moved off the Route&nbsp;28 alignment in Phillipsburg, and [[U.S. Route 22 Alternate (Phillipsburg, New Jersey)|US&nbsp;22 Alternate]] (US&nbsp;22 Alt., now [[New Jersey Route 122|Route&nbsp;122]]) took its place, as well as east of Bridgewater Township, where it was realigned to follow Route&nbsp;28-29 Link and [[New Jersey Route 29|Route&nbsp;29]] to [[Newark, New Jersey|Newark]]. In 1953, the western terminus of Route&nbsp;28 was moved to the intersection of the current CR&nbsp;614 and Route&nbsp;22, in Branchburg Township. Sometime after 1990 it was moved east to its current location to allow for more local control of speed limits along Easton Turnpike, and the de-designated stretch was designated [[County Route 614 (Somerset County, New Jersey)|CR&nbsp;614]]. A portion of the route in Elizabeth was realigned to replace Route&nbsp;27-28 Link, with the former route becoming Route 439.

== History ==
Route&nbsp;28 follows the course of the Tuckaraming Trail, an old Lenape Trail that later became the [[Old York Road]], the main road from [[New York City]] to [[Philadelphia]]. In 1917, Route&nbsp;9 was designated by the state of New Jersey to run from [[Phillipsburg, New Jersey|Phillipsburg]] east to Elizabeth, passing through [[Clinton, New Jersey|Clinton]], Somerville, Plainfield, and Westfield.<ref name="1920r9">{{cite book |type = Report |title = 1917 Annual Report |publisher = New Jersey Department of Transportation |date = 1917 }}</ref> With the establishment of the [[U.S. Highway System]] in 1926, US&nbsp;22 was concurrently designated along the entire length of Route&nbsp;9.<ref name="USHM">{{cite map |author1 = [[Bureau of Public Roads]] |author2 = [[American Association of State Highway Officials]] |date = November 11, 1926 |title = United States System of Highways Adopted for Uniform Marking by the American Association of State Highway Officials |url = https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:United_States_System_of_Highways_Adopted_for_Uniform_Marking_by_the_American_Association_of_State_Highway_Officials.jpg |scale = 1:7,000,000 |location = Washington, DC |publisher = [[United States Geological Survey]] |oclc = 32889555 |access-date = November 7, 2013 |via = [[Wikimedia Commons]] |name-list-style = amp }}</ref><ref name=ttmap>{{cite map |url = http://www.jimmyandsharonwilliams.com/njroads/1920s/maps/1927tt1.jpg |title = Map of New Jersey |year = 1927 |publisher = Tydol Trails |access-date = December 30, 2008 }}</ref> A year later, in the [[1927 New Jersey state highway renumbering]], Route&nbsp;28 was legislated to run from Phillipsburg east to the [[Goethals Bridge]], replacing pre-1927 Route&nbsp;9 between Phillipsburg and present-day Route&nbsp;439 in Elizabeth, and following current Route&nbsp;439 toward the Goethals Bridge. Meanwhile, the former alignment of pre-1927 Route&nbsp;9 east became Route&nbsp;27-28 Link, as it provided a connection between Route&nbsp;27 and Route&nbsp;28. A spur of Route&nbsp;28, named [[New Jersey Route S28|Route&nbsp;S28]], was also legislated in the 1927 renumbering and was to run from Route&nbsp;28 in Middlesex southeast to [[New Jersey Route 4|Route&nbsp;4]] (now [[New Jersey Route 79|Route&nbsp;79]]) in [[Matawan, New Jersey|Matawan]].<ref name=nj1927>State of New Jersey, Laws of 1927, Chapter 319.</ref><ref name="Map">{{cite map |url = http://www.jimmyandsharonwilliams.com/njroads/1920s/images/1927_routes.gif |title = 1927 New Jersey Road Map |publisher = State of New Jersey |access-date = October 8, 2008 |url-status = dead |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20071031111034/http://www.jimmyandsharonwilliams.com/njroads/1920s/images/1927_routes.gif |archive-date = October 31, 2007 }}</ref> What was built of this route became [[New Jersey Route 18|Route&nbsp;18]] in the [[1953 New Jersey state highway renumbering]].<ref name="nj1953">{{cite book |title = 1953 renumbering |url = http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/1953_New_Jersey_state_highway_renumbering |publisher = New Jersey Department of Highways |access-date = July 31, 2009 |url-status = dead |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20110628183145/http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/1953_New_Jersey_state_highway_renumbering |archive-date = June 28, 2011 }}</ref> By 1941, US&nbsp;22 was eventually moved from Route&nbsp;28 to follow Route&nbsp;28-29 Link and [[New Jersey Route 29|Route&nbsp;29]] between the Somerville area and [[Newark, New Jersey|Newark]]. Also, US&nbsp;22 was realigned to its current alignment along [[New Jersey Route 24|Route&nbsp;24]] and Route&nbsp;24-28 Link in Phillipsburg, with the alignment along Route&nbsp;28 becoming [[U.S. Route 22 Alternate (Phillipsburg, New Jersey)|US&nbsp;22 Alt.]] (now [[New Jersey Route 122|Route&nbsp;122]]).<ref name="mwm">{{cite map |publisher = Mid-West Map Co. |title = Map of Pennsylvania and New Jersey |year = 1941 |author = [[H.M.

In addition, Route&nbsp;28 was moved to its current alignment in Elizabeth, replacing Route&nbsp;27-28 Link; Route&nbsp;439 was designated along the former alignment of Route&nbsp;28 that ran to the Goethals Bridge.<ref name=nj1953/>

Due in general to farmland development and safety concerns, the western terminus of Route&nbsp;28 was later adjusted to the second Easton Turnpike interchange with US&nbsp;22 in Bridgewater Township, creating CR&nbsp;614. This allowed for local control of speed limits in the now congested stretch of Easton Turnpike between its two intersections with US&nbsp;22.
