Safe Corridor

Safe Corridor

The Safe Corridor initiative is part of an effort by the New Jersey Department of Transportation, and departments from other states, to improve the safety of its roads. Roads with accident and fatality rates above the average may have some of their lengths designated as "Safe Corridor" areas. In these areas, traffic fines are doubled.

At the program's inception, there were thirteen roads with Safe Corridors: U.S. Route 1, U.S. Highway 9, Route 10, Route 17, U.S. Highway 22, Route 23, U.S. Highway 30, U.S. Highway 40, U.S. Highway 46, Route 47, Route 73, U.S. Highway 130, and U.S. Highway 206.

The Safe Corridors Program is a part of New Jersey’s “Safety First” initiative, which combines $20 million in highway improvements over five years with stricter police enforcement, increased fines for unsafe equipment and hazardous driving, and enhanced driver education for all motorists. New Jersey’s Safe Corridors Program focuses on improving safety along the State’s most crash-prone corridors – nearly 130 miles of state roadway.
