About this Location

Facility Overview

NJ Tpke Parking at Sewaren is situated directly along the busy Interstate 95 / New Jersey Turnpike corridor in Woodbridge Township, New Jersey (near Milepost 92.9 Northbound, serving the Grover Cleveland Service Plaza area). This expansive outdoor surface parking facility provides vital stopping, staging, and rest space for motorists traveling through Central Jersey toward the New York metropolitan area. Designed as an open-air lot with no vertical clearance restrictions or low-hanging garage decks, it accommodates standard passenger cars, oversized SUVs, pickup trucks, motorhomes, and high-clearance commercial or towing vehicles with ease.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

While serving primarily as an essential turnpike service facility and rest stop, the lot sits in close proximity to major Middlesex County and Staten Island hubs:

  • Arthur Kill Waterway & Sewaren Waterfront Park: Just minutes east along Cliff Road and East Avenue, providing quiet views of Staten Island Sound.

Regional connectivity is exceptional, with rapid access to the Garden State Parkway, US Route 1, US Route 9, and Interstate 287 within a few miles. For rail transit connections, the Woodbridge NJ Transit Train Station (North Jersey Coast Line) and Metropark Station in Iselin (Northeast Corridor and Amtrak) are both short drives away via local turnpike exits.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Because this facility operates along an active turnpike interchange, always pay close attention to posted directional signage separating passenger vehicles from commercial truck zones. Overnight parking is restricted to designated rest limits under New Jersey Turnpike Authority regulations, so ensure your vehicle is not left unattended for extended multi-day periods. If you plan to enter local communities in Sewaren or Woodbridge, note that direct turnaround access back onto the Turnpike Southbound requires exiting via Interchange 11 or Interchange 12.
