• The Garden State Parkway implemented "One-Way Tolling" at Interchange 145. The northbound GSP exit toll at Interchange 145 has been eliminated and the entrance toll has increased.
• New work zones have been created on the left side (median) of northbound and southbound GSP between 14th Avenue (milepost 146.0) and Interchange 145 (milepost 146.9) for median roadway and barrier reconstruction.
• During the evening of 03/04/21, the temporary exit ramp previously opened from southbound Garden State Parkway to Oraton Parkway at New Street in East Orange will close permanently. Traffic to Central Avenue, CR 508, will return to the southbound Interchange 145 Exit.
• During the weeks of 03/01/21 and 03/08/21, nighttime lane closures will be utilized on northbound and southbound Garden State Parkway between Interchange 144 and Interchange 145 for roadway reconstruction work. Work will be supported by State Police.
