Here is the detour through May 2024:
Main Road/CR 555 northbound detour:
- Traffic on Main Road/CR 555 northbound will be directed to turn right onto Weymouth Road/CR 690 eastbound
- Turn left onto South Brewster Road/CR 672 northbound
- Turn left onto Route 40/Harding Highway westbound, back to Main Road/CR 555
Main Road/CR 555 southbound detour:
- Traffic on Main Road/CR 555 southbound will be directed to turn left onto Route 40/Harding Highway eastbound

The work is part of a $2.2 million federally funded project to enhance safety and improve the operation of the signalized intersection of Route 40 and Main Road/CR 555 in Franklin Township, Gloucester County. Improvements include adding right turn ramps from Main Road/CR 555 to Route 40, as well as repaving and raising the intersection by nearly two feet. The traffic signals will be replaced; new concrete median islands will be installed; ADA-compliant curb ramps and sidewalks will be constructed; and upgrades will be made to drainage inlets. The project is expected to be completed by summer 2024.
