The Camden-Atlantic City parkway was to have been constructed along the Atlantic City Expressway and North-South Freeway (I-76 / I-676 / NJ 42) alignment, and was to connect to other parkways planned along the current US 206 and US 322 corridors. The plan proposed a parkway extending from the Benjamin Franklin Bridge approach in Camden southeast to Atlantic City.
Like the Moses parkways in New York, the four-lane parkways were to feature controlled access, stone-arch bridges, timber lightposts, and natural vegetation. PLANNED AS A PARKWAY: In 1932, the Regional Planning Federation (the predecessor agency to the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission) proposed a parkway system around the Philadelphia area similar to that constructed by Robert Moses. The connector from the expressway to the Marina District was completed in 2001. This 2002 photo shows the eastbound Atlantic City Expressway approaching EXIT 1 (Atlantic City-Brigantine Connector) and downtown Atlantic City.
