This study examines traffic circulation along the US 130 corridor in the industrial area by NJ Turnpike Interchange 6A. The study area encompasses parts of Florence Township, Burlington Township, and Burlington City zoned for light/heavy industry and manufacturing. This DVRPC-designated Mega Freight Center is growing rapidly, and the area is expected to accommodate approximately 10 million square feet of additional warehouse and industrial space by 2025. This study identifies roadway improvements that can support greater traffic volumes generated by new development. The study also addresses the need to provide safe pedestrian access to, from, and within the study area. Staff collected turning movement counts for and analyzed 12 key intersections. Microsimulation traffic engineering software was utilized to perform a comprehensive trip generation exercise. In combination with stakeholder input, these analyses led to the identification of short-term and long-term operational improvements needed at intersections, interchanges, and identified bottlenecks.

Geographic Area Covered: Florence Township, Burlington Township, Burlington City, Burlington County
