CR 561

 

Is this one truly north-south, or east-west? Take your pick, because Camden is further north than Seaview Resort in Galloway, but CR 561 is perpendicular to multiple true north-south routes.

Atlantic County:

CR 561 begins at US 9 in Galloway.

What kind of ugliness is that sign? At the CR 561 and CR 674 junction on the Galloway-Egg Harbor City border.

CR 561 at the northern terminus of CR 561 Alternate.

Interesting way to abbreviate ToWnShiP.

Horrendous ugliness at the same intersection, heading southbound.

CR 561 intersects US 30, which it runs parallel to. The only reason for this intersection is because US 30 swings north to bypass downtown Hammonton.

CR 561 encounters its first of two one-way pairings in Hammonton at CR 602.

CR 561 in downtown Hammonton. Here, CR 561 intersects NJ 54, a true north-south route, at a 90-degree angle. Proof that CR 561 is east-west. And how about this: for one block, CR 561 NB has a wrong-way concurrency with NJ 54 SB while heading SB according to the compass!

Camden County:

CR 561 is the southern end of NJ 143.

At the NJ 73 and CR 561 concurrency. This sign is missing a lot. It's missing the NJ 73 sign, and it's missing a directional banner for NORTH.

CR 561 departs from NJ 73.

CR 561 starts a concurrency with US 30 and CR 534.
