New Jersey State Highway 7New Jersey State Highway 7 is a state highway in New Jersey, United States. It has two sections. Section 1 runs from the U.S. 1 and U.S. 9 Truck routes in Jersey City, an intersection commonly known as the Charlotte Circle, to the line between Kearny and Belleville at the Passaic River. This stretch of road is known as the Belleville Turnpike. Section 2 runs from the border between Newark and Belleville at the Second River to the border between Essex and Passaic counties in Nutley. This section uses Washington Avenue in Belleville, Nutley, and Clifton, Kingsland Road in Clifton, Kingsland Street and Cathedral Avenue in Nutley, and the section ends less than one-half mile from New Jersey State Highway 3. Prior to the 1950s, NJ 7 was signed south to Newark and north to Paterson along Section 2. Rutgers Street in Belleville, named for Col. Henry Rutgers, is used to connect the two sections. It is signed as part of NJ 7, but it is officially part of Essex County Route 506. Section 2 of NJ 7 is not signed between the Second River and Rutgers Street except on overhead signs suspended from traffic signals.
