New Jersey State Highway Routes
Route 303 was a proposed state highway in the northeastern portion of New Jersey. The route originally was defined to go from an intersection with current-day New Jersey Route 4 in Teaneck, then progressing northward through several local communities before connecting to the New York state line at Northvale. At the state line, Route 303 was to intertwine and become the current-day New York State Route 303. The alignment runs along the current alignment of County Route 505, which becomes NY 303 at the state line.
It was first planned in 1938 as Route S4D (a spur of Route 4), and once the 1953 renumbering of highways occurred, the S-4-D designation was replaced by NJ 303. However, the highway was never assigned and remains unused to this day.
The proposed alignment of Route 303 was to begin at an intersection with New Jersey Route 4, a major highway in northern New Jersey, north of the community of Fort Lee. The route was to head northward along an alignment through the community of Teaneck, passing along an alignment similar to current-day County Route 505. The route was to eventually pass the New Jersey State Armory at an intersection with the proposed Liberty Road and continue northward to the New York state line at Northvale, where the 303 designation would continue northward as New York State Route 303.
