Will never happen. New Jersey is a state that ignores and hates its largest city and insists on worshiping New York and Philadelphia. You can drive the NJ turnpike from Delaware to Exit 14 and you will never see the name Newark on the control cities header sign. But if you drive south on the turnpike you see constantly the names Trenton and Camden even though the turnpike misses these two cities by over 5 miles to the east! New Jersey's only interested in serving New York and Philadelphia. And besides, the article is wrong. Most of the right way is gone in the Ironbound between the old Ballantine Factory on ferry and Jackson Street

There is a reference to Philadelphia on the Garden State Parkway Southbound in Woodbridge or Metuchen just before the exit take you to Turnpike interchange 11. South on the turnpike 30 mention of Philadelphia until you reach what used to be the Pennsylvania Turnpike extension which is now the new 95 South. That's where Philly references appear. It's been a painful years but last I remember most control City Signs continue to say Del Memorial Bridge or Camden. NB on 95 now says "New York" as of new signage.
