County Route 502, abbreviated CR 502, is a county highway in the U.S. state of New Jersey. The highway extends 23.79 miles (38.29 kilometers) from Paterson-Hamburg Turnpike (CR 504) in Wayne to Palisades Boulevard (US 9W) in Alpine.
CR 502 is a very important east–west route in the northern part of Bergen County. north–south travel in the county is available via Route 208 and Route 17, the Garden State Parkway, Route 9W and the Palisades Interstate Parkway. In contrast, the only east–west route in the area is Route 4, from Paterson to Fort Lee. Thus, the north area of the county relies heavily on 502 for east–west travel. Farthest north, NY 59 or the New York State Thruway can be used as east–west alternatives to 502.
CR 502 comprises its beginning at County Route 504, Berdan Avenue, Breakneck Road, Long Hill Road, Franklin Lake Road, Ewing Avenue, Franklin Avenue, Wyckoff Avenue in Waldwick, a brief concurrency with County Route 507 on Franklin Turnpike in Waldwick and Ho-Ho-Kus, Hollywood Avenue, East Saddle River Road, Wearimus Road, Washington Avenue, Broadway, Old Hook Road, High Street, Closter Dock Road, and its end at US 9W. In the extreme west of Bergen County, 502 is a pseudo-highway with no-left-turn jughandles, u-turns and stoplights. When 502 runs through Harrington Park, Emerson, and Westwood, it is a four-lane major avenue. As it runs through Washington Township, Ho-Ho-Kus and Waldwick it is a major two-lane road. As it continues west, it is mostly a two-lane road with occasional expansions into a four-lane avenue.
