Does anyone know the new name of route 46? I’ve tried to look for it on google earth and on the general web, but can’t find anything. I’ve tried “old route 46,” “route 46 south,” as well. I know his home in Neptune is east of South Plainfield, but I’d like to look for the likely roads he would have taken home, and see sonar the waters later in the year if everything goes well. Thank you in advance for any help!

Buddy left a "diner on RT-46" off Garden State Parkway EXIT 145 (Parsippany Troy Hills, NJ), then he left papers" at his office located west of Garden State Parkway EXIT 132 (South Plainfield, NJ), and then his final destination that night was his home at 210 Brighton Ave (nearby the Shark River Firehouse) off Garden State Park way EXIT 100 (Neptune, NJ)
