NJ Turnpike South or North: Get off on 15W to 280 West, past Harrison into Newark. Get off on the Orange Street and 6th Street Exit. Once on exit, bear right into the Orange Street exit. At stop sign, go straight. You will be on North 5th Street, which is one way northbound. Stay on 5th Street; go straight over Park Avenue (you will see a KFC on the northwest corner of the intersection, and a Hess Gas Station on the northeast corner). Drive slowly (because you are going to go only another 20 yards on 5th Street) and stay on the left side of the road. Our driveway is the second one on the left (about 5 yards after KFC's driveway) after you go over Park Avenue*.
Downtown Newark: Take Irvine Turner Blvd., which turns into Jones Street, Norfolk Street and then finally into Clifton Avenue. Continue on Clifton Avenue past Branch Brook Park (on left side) to Park Avenue. Turn left at light; you will be on Park Avenue. Drive through the park, just before the KFC (after the Hess Gas Station) take a right onto North 5th Street (one way northbound). Drive slowly (because you are going to go only about 20 yards on 5th Street) and stay on the left side of the road. Our driveway is the second one on the left (about 5 yards after KFC's driveway)*.
Morristown, Newton & Washington Areas: Take Route 280 East to Exit 13 (First Street Exit). At traffic light make left onto First Street. Go through first traffic light to the second traffic light. Make a left turn onto Park Avenue. Take your first right onto North 5th Street (between the Hess Gas Station and the KFC). Drive slowly (because you are going to go only about 20 yards on 5th Street) and stay on the left side of the road. Our driveway is the second one on the left (about 5 yards after KFC's driveway)*.
Elizabeth: Take Route 1-9 North to Route 21 North, which will divide into Broad Street and McCarter Highway. Upon entering Route 21 North, take Broad Street by bearing left. Continue all the way (maybe about a mile and a half) to Bloomfield Place (a couple of blocks after you go under I-280; the street before Bloomfield Place is Clark St). Make a left onto Bloomfield Place; go one block, stay in the middle lane and go straight at the light (it isn't exactly straight but rather a turn towards 1:30 versus 12:00) onto Bloomfield Avenue. Go about 2 blocks on Bloomfield Avenue and make left onto Park Avenue at traffic light. Drive through about four traffic lights (going through Branch Brook Park); just before the KFC (after the Hess Gas Station) take a right onto North 5th Street (one way northbound). Drive slowly (because you are going to go only about 20 yards on 5th Street) and stay on the left side of the road. Our driveway is the second one on the left (about 5 yards after KFC's driveway)*.
The Planning Council offices are located on the second floor of Jack's Laundromat.
You can now access our parking lot from both North 5th and North 6th Streets. If you miss the driveway, then go one block past Park Avenue (heading north on 5th Street), take a left onto 4th Avenue, take the first left (at traffic light) onto North 6th Street (one-way southbound). Just before the KFC take a left into our driveway.
We are striving to make our offices more wheelchair accessible. The front entrance is equipped with a lift and we now have a wheelchair accessible bathroom on the same level as our conference room. If you require any special accommodation, please feel free to call us in advance.
