New Jersey State Highway Routes
Route 71 is a state highway in New Jersey, United States, running 16.78 miles (27.00 km) near the shore in Monmouth County. It begins at Route 35 in Brielle, just north of the Manasquan River and the Ocean County line, and heads north to Route 35 in Eatontown, with a four-block concurrency with Route 35 in Belmar. The Broad Street of Route 71 section is co-signed with CR 537 from the Monmouth Road section and Eatontown Boulevard (CR 537) to the northern terminus at NJ 35. Monmouth University is located off Route 71 in West Long Branch.
Route 71 is the former alignment of State Highway Route 4 and Route 35. In 1927, the alignment became the designation of State Highway Route 4-N. This alignment remained intact until the state highway renumbering in 1953. That day, Route 4-N became Route 71, and has remained virtually unchanged since. Route 71 was also to serve as the eastern terminus of the New Jersey Route 33 Freeway in Neptune, but this never came to be.
