'''Route&nbsp;33''' is a [[List of state highways in New Jersey|state highway]] in the central part of the US state of [[New Jersey]]. The highway extends {{convert|42.03|mi|km}}, from an interchange with [[U.S. Route 1 in New Jersey|U.S. Route&nbsp;1]] (US&nbsp;1) in [[Trenton, New Jersey|Trenton]], [[Mercer County, New Jersey|Mercer County]], east to an intersection of Main Street ([[New Jersey Route 71|Route&nbsp;71]]) in [[Neptune Township, New Jersey|Neptune]], [[Monmouth County, New Jersey|Monmouth County]]. Route&nbsp;33 is a major route through [[Central Jersey|Central New Jersey]], as it runs from the greater state capital area in the [[Delaware River|Delaware Valley Region]], through a mixture of farmland, housing, and commercial developments in the lower [[Raritan River|Raritan Valley Region]], en route to the greater [[Asbury Park, New Jersey|Asbury Park]] area on the [[Jersey Shore]]. The route traverses through historic towns such as [[Hightstown, New Jersey|Hightstown]], [[Monroe Township, Middlesex County, New Jersey|Monroe Township]], [[Manalapan Township, New Jersey|Manalapan]], [[Freehold Borough, New Jersey|Freehold]], and [[Tinton Falls, New Jersey|Tinton Falls]]. There are several intersections on Route&nbsp;33 with future developments.

Route&nbsp;33 begins in Trenton as a two-lane residential street. It passes through central Mercer County, joining northbound [[U.S. Route 130|US&nbsp;130]] in Robbinsville. It leaves the U.S. Highway in East Windsor and becomes a local town road into the borough of Hightstown. It turns east again as it passes the east end of the [[New Jersey Route 133|Route&nbsp;133]], where it becomes an [[arterial road]] with four lanes as it makes its way through Monmouth County toward the shore. Around the greater "Freeholds area", it becomes a [[controlled-access highway|freeway]]. It then crosses the [[Garden State Parkway]]'s exit&nbsp;100 in Tinton Falls and [[New Jersey Route 18|Route&nbsp;18]] in Neptune. Here, it is locally known as Corlies Avenue. Route&nbsp;33 ends at [[New Jersey Route 71|Route&nbsp;71]] in Neptune. It has two concurrencies along the route, one with [[New Jersey Route 34|Route&nbsp;34]] and the second with US&nbsp;130. It roughly parallels [[Interstate 195 (New Jersey)|Interstate 195]] (I-195), located further to the south.

Route&nbsp;33 begins at an interchange with [[U.S. Route 1 in New Jersey|US&nbsp;1]] in the state capital of [[Trenton, New Jersey|Trenton]], [[Mercer County, New Jersey|Mercer County]]; the interchange also includes a ramp from westbound Route&nbsp;33 to southbound [[New Jersey Route 129|Route&nbsp;129]] at that route's northern terminus at a partial interchange with US&nbsp;1. The route heads southeast on Market Street as a four-lane [[divided highway]], passing over [[NJ Transit]]'s [[River Line (NJ Transit)|River Line]] and [[Amtrak]]'s [[Northeast Corridor]] railroad line, just south of the [[Trenton Transit Center]] serving Amtrak, NJ Transit's [[Northeast Corridor Line]] and River Line, and [[SEPTA]]'s [[Trenton Line]]. After intersecting with South Clinton Avenue, Route&nbsp;33 becomes Greenwood Avenue and heads east as a two-lane residential street on the east side of the city, passing north of [[Trenton Central High School]] and serving a few small businesses. Greenwood Avenue then enters [[Hamilton Township, Mercer County, New Jersey|Hamilton]] and enters a slightly more commercialized area before passing north of a cemetery. At this point, Greenwood Avenue ends, and Route&nbsp;33 merges with Nottingham Way and becomes a four-lane [[boulevard]] lined with many homes and businesses. After reaching a modified interchange with [[Interstate 295 (Delaware–Pennsylvania)|I-295]], Route&nbsp;33 turns right off of Nottingham Way and becomes a two-lane surface road with a center left-turn lane. The route passes many business and crosses through a wooded residential area before coming back into a commercial area and entering [[Robbinsville Township, New Jersey|Robbinsville]], where Route&nbsp;33 turns northeast onto [[U.S. Route 130|US&nbsp;130]] and the two routes [[Concurrency (road)|run concurrently]] on a four-lane [[arterial road]].<ref name="sld"/><ref name="google">{{google maps|url=https://www.google.com/maps/dir/40.2173965,-74.7589465/Corlies+Ave,+Asbury+Park,+NJ+07712/@40.2120163,-75.2571912,143435m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m19!4m18!1m10!3m4!1m2!1d-74.6879923!2d40.2337223!3s0x89c158cb19a84b2b:0x402ec72b7af273ba!3m4!1m2!1d-74.524117!2d40.2687008!3s0x89c3df18b8f9c441:0x66bcc0177029c9bc!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c22631aa3ff67b:0xcd2e324a7b93395a!2m2!1d-74.0154217!2d40.2110137!3e0|title=Overview map of Route 33|access-date=May 23, 2020}}</ref>

US&nbsp;130/Route&nbsp;33 passes through a wooded area with several business lining the route before entering [[East Windsor, New Jersey|East Windsor]], where Route&nbsp;33 splits off from US&nbsp;130 onto two-lane Mercer Street while US 130 continues north-northeast. The road passes through woods before emerging into [[Hightstown, New Jersey|Hightstown]], where it serves several businesses and bisects a cemetery before entering the downtown area. Here, Mercer Street ends, and Route&nbsp;33 runs northeast along Main Street before turning right onto Franklin Street and coming back into East Windsor. The route becomes a four-lane [[arterial road]] as it passes under the [[New Jersey Turnpike]] ([[Interstate 95 in New Jersey|I-95]]) and becomes a divided highway, reaching an interchange with [[New Jersey Route 133|Route&nbsp;133]], which serves the turnpike.<ref name="sld"/><ref name="google"/>

After the intersection of Twin Rivers Drive/Twin Rivers Drive North, Route&nbsp;33 enters [[Monroe Township, Middlesex County, New Jersey|Monroe Township]], [[Middlesex County, New Jersey|Middlesex County]], where it serves many residential communities. Continuing east, activity along the sides of the highway disappears, and the route enters [[Millstone Township, New Jersey|Millstone Township]], [[Monmouth County, New Jersey|Monmouth County]], where businesses begin to reappear. Crossing into [[Manalapan Township, New Jersey|Manalapan]], Route&nbsp;33 passes through a mix of farmland and commercial areas before reaching the western terminus of [[New Jersey Route 33#Business route|Bus. Route&nbsp;33]], an old alignment of Route&nbsp;33. At this point, Route&nbsp;33 becomes a four-lane freeway and enters [[Freehold Township, New Jersey|Freehold Township]]. The freeway passes south of [[Freehold Raceway Mall]] and bypasses [[Freehold Borough, New Jersey|Freehold]], reaching interchanges with [[County Route 537 (New Jersey)|CR&nbsp;537]] and [[U.S. Route 9 in New Jersey|US&nbsp;9]] at the southern terminus of [[New Jersey Route 79|Route&nbsp;79]]. Heading into more rural areas, Route&nbsp;33 becomes a [[Two-lane expressway|two-lane freeway]] and enters [[Howell Township, New Jersey|Howell]] and passes over the [[Freehold Industrial Track]] railroad line operated by the [[Delaware and Raritan River Railroad]] before it meets the eastern terminus of Bus. Route&nbsp;33 as the freeway ends.<ref name="sld"/><ref name="google"/>

Now a two-lane surface road, Route&nbsp;33 passes through a largely wooded area south of [[Naval Weapons Station Earle]] and serves several businesses and residential neighborhoods before merging with [[New Jersey Route 34|Route&nbsp;34]] and becoming a four-lane arterial road. The two routes run concurrently and pass over the [[Southern Secondary]] railroad line operated by the Delaware and Raritan River Railroad before entering [[Wall Township, New Jersey|Wall Township]], where several businesses line the route. At [[Traffic circles in New Jersey|Collingwood Circle]], Route&nbsp;34 splits from Route&nbsp;33, and the latter continues east as a four-lane undivided surface road while Route 34 continues southeast and enters [[Tinton Falls, New Jersey|Tinton Falls]]. The westbound and eastbound lanes eventually split apart as the highway reaches the western terminus of [[New Jersey Route 66|Route&nbsp;66]] and an interchange with the [[Garden State Parkway]]. Past this point, Route&nbsp;33 becomes Corlies Avenue and enters [[Neptune Township, New Jersey|Neptune]], passing through many residential neighborhoods. After an interchange with [[New Jersey Route 18|Route&nbsp;18]], Route&nbsp;33 forms the border between Neptune to the north and [[Neptune City, New Jersey|Neptune City]] to the south. The road then crosses entirely back into Neptune and passes south of [[Jersey Shore University Medical Center]] and [[K. Hovnanian Children's Hospital]]. After an intersection of [[New Jersey Route 35|Route&nbsp;35]], Route&nbsp;33 becomes to a two-lane surface road with a center left-turn lane before crossing NJ Transit's [[North Jersey Coast Line]] and reaching its eastern terminus at the intersection of Main Street [[New Jersey Route 71|Route&nbsp;71]].<ref name="sld"/><ref name="google"/>

==History==
[[File:2020-09-15 09 20 45 View west along New Jersey State Route 33 (Freehold Bypass) at the exit for Monmouth County Route 537 EAST (TO U.S. Route 9 NORTH, The Amboys, Newark) in Freehold Township, Monmouth County, New Jersey.jpg|right|thumb|Route&nbsp;33 westbound at CR&nbsp;537, on the older four-lane Freehold Bypass]]
West of Robbinsville, the road was maintained by the '''Trenton and Allentown Turnpike''', which was chartered in 1856; east of Robbinsville, the [[Toll road|turnpike]] followed modern-day CR&nbsp;526 to [[Allentown, New Jersey|Allentown]]. From the border of Manalapan and Millstone townships east to the intersection with Woodward Road, the road was maintained by the [[Manalapan and Patton's Corner Turnpike]]; the road from there to Freehold was maintained as the '''Freehold and Manalapan Turnpike''', chartered in 1858. The Freehold and Manalapan bought the portion of the Manalapan and Patton's Corner now signed Route&nbsp;33. In addition, a small portion of the Englishtown and Millstone Turnpike was built along Route&nbsp;33 from CR&nbsp;527A west to Millstone Road, though this was overtaken in the construction of the '''Freehold and Manalapan Turnpike''', chartered in 1866 to connect Freehold and Manalapan. From Freehold to Jerseyville, what is now Bus. Route&nbsp;33 was maintained by the '''Freehold and Jerseyville Turnpike''', chartered in 1866.

Route&nbsp;33 originally was part of two auto trails: the Cranbury Trail, an alternative to the Lincoln Trail running from New Brunswick to Trenton; and the Jersey Link, running from Hightstown to Ocean Grove.<ref>{{Cite map |title = Rand McNally official 1920 auto trails map, New York City and vicinity. |url = https://www.loc.gov/item/88695915/ |access-date = June 30, 2022 |via = Library of Congress }}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |url = https://books.google.com/books?id=Cn0AAAAAMAAJ&pg=RA8-PA17 |title = Motorcycle Illustrated |date = 1921 |publisher = Motorcycle Publishing Company |language = en }}</ref> These routes were incorporated in 1916 into two new routes: [[New Jersey Route 1|Route&nbsp;1]] in parts of the road south of [[Hightstown, New Jersey|Hightstown]], and [[New Jersey Route 7 (1920s)|Route&nbsp;7]] from Hightstown to its terminus at Route&nbsp;71. Both roads were changed into Route&nbsp;33 in the [[1927 New Jersey state highway renumbering]].<ref name="sld05">{{cite web |author = [[New Jersey Department of Transportation]] |url = http://www.state.nj.us/transportation/refdata/sldiag/00000033__-.pdf |title = Route 33 Straight Line Diagram from 2005 |access-date = August 26, 2007 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20031029054039/http://www.state.nj.us/transportation/refdata/sldiag/00000033__-.pdf |archive-date = October 29, 2003 }}</ref>

Route&nbsp;33 was originally planned as a [[Controlled-access highway|freeway]] from [[U.S. Route 1 in New Jersey|US&nbsp;1]] in Trenton across New Jersey to [[New Jersey Route 18|Route&nbsp;18]] in [[Neptune Township, New Jersey|Neptune]]. However, in 1967, the [[New Jersey Department of Transportation]] scaled back proposals to the current {{convert|7|mi|km|adj=on|spell=in}} Route 33. Route 33 from near CR&nbsp;527 in Manalapan to Halls Mill Road in Freehold Township was completed and opened in segments from 1971 to 1988.<ref name="Bypass2">{{cite press release |url = http://www.nj.gov/transportation/about/press/2003/011603.shtm |title = Route&nbsp;33 Bypass to open January 17, 2003 |publisher = [[New Jersey Department of Transportation]] |date = January 16, 2003 |access-date = June 14, 2007 }}</ref>

Route&nbsp;33 has three abandoned segments. The first of these is the cloverleaf ramp from [[New Jersey Route 79|Route&nbsp;79]] southbound to Route&nbsp;33 eastbound. It has been mostly demolished to make way for a new reverse jughandle for [[U.S. Route 9 in New Jersey|US&nbsp;9]] northbound to Schanck Road. The merging part of the ramp still remains abandoned along the right side of the eastbound freeway.<ref name="mq1">{{cite web |author = [[Mapquest]] |url = http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?address=Us%20Highway%209%20%26%20Schanck%20Rd&city=Freehold&state=NJ&zipcode=07728&country=US&title=%3cb%20class%3d%22fn%20org%22%3eUs%20Highway%209%20%26amp%3b%20Schanck%20Rd%3c%2fb%3e%3cbr%20%2f%3e%20%3cspan%20style%3d%22display%3ainline%3bmargin%2dbottom%3a0px%3b%22%20class%3d%22locality%22%3eFreehold%3c%2fspan%3e%2c%20%3cspan%20style%3d%22display%3ainline%3bmargin%2dbottom%3a0px%3b%22%20class%3d%22region%22%3eNJ%3c%2fspan%3e%20%3cspan%20style%3d%22display%3ainline%3bmargin%2dbottom%3a0px%3b%22%20class%3d%22postal%2dcode%22%3e07728%3c%2fspan%3e%2c%20%20%3cspan%20style%3d%22display%3ainline%3bmargin%2dbottom%3a0px%3b%22%20class%3d%22country%2dname%22%3eUS%3c%2fspan%3e%3c%2fspan%3e&cid=lfmaplink2&name=&dtype=a |title = View of Route 33/Route 79 interchange |access-date = August 26, 2007 }}</ref>

The original alignment for the freeway east of Halls Mill Road ([[List of county routes in Monmouth County, New Jersey#55|CR&nbsp;55]]) can be seen now as a New Jersey Department of Transportation maintenance shed. The new alignment curves to the left after the interchange, in order to avoid what the New Jersey Department of Transportation believed to be a suspected (but never identified) turtle bog habitat. The pavement is accessible from the eastbound on-ramp, but is fenced off.<ref name="mq2">{{cite web |author = [[Mapquest]] |url = http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?address=Okerson%20Rd%20%26%20Halls%20Mill%20Rd&city=Freehold&state=NJ&zipcode=07728&country=US&title=%3cb%20class%3d%22fn%20org%22%3eOkerson%20Rd%20%26amp%3b%20Halls%20Mill%20Rd%3c%2fb%3e%3cbr%20%2f%3e%20%3cspan%20style%3d%22display%3ainline%3bmargin%2dbottom%3a0px%3b%22%20class%3d%22locality%22%3eFreehold%3c%2fspan%3e%2c%20%3cspan%20style%3d%22display%3ainline%3bmargin%2dbottom%3a0px%3b%22%20class%3d%22region%22%3eNJ%3c%2fspan%3e%20%3cspan%20style%3d%22display%3ainline%3bmargin%2dbottom%3a0px%3b%22%20class%3d%22postal%2dcode%22%3e07728%3c%2fspan%3e%2c%20%20%3cspan%20style%3d%22display%3ainline%3bmargin%2dbottom%3a0px%3b%22%20class%3d%22country%2dname%22%3eUS%3c%2fspan%3e%3c%2fspan%3e&cid=lfmaplink2&name=&dtype=a |title = View of Route 33/County Route 55 interchange |access-date = August 26, 2007 }}</ref>

Up until late 1988, Route&nbsp;33 westbound ran underneath US&nbsp;130, then merged with US&nbsp;130's southbound lanes. This was because Route&nbsp;33 ran parallel to [[Pennsylvania Railroad]] [[United New Jersey Railroad and Canal Company#Camden and Amboy: 1830-1834|Camden & Amboy route]] at that point, requiring a massive concrete overpass. (Route&nbsp;33 eastbound also ascended the bridge approach about halfway before branching off like an exit ramp—a sign with flashing lights read "Hightstown, Shore Points" at the fork.) Pennsylvania Railroad abandoned the Hightstown–Windsor segment in 1967, reducing the importance of the hulking bridge. The New Jersey Department of Transportation eventually demolished the crumbling structure in 1989. Route&nbsp;33 now meets US&nbsp;130 at the north end of the overlap with a traffic signal.

In 2001, the Freehold Bypass was designated as the Theodore J. Narozanick Highway.<ref>{{Cite web |url = https://www.nj.gov/transportation/about/press/2001/062701c.shtm |title = DiFrancesco Signs Bill Designating the Route 33 Bypass, 'Theodore J. Narozanick Highway' }}</ref>

The remainder of Route 33 east to Fairfield Road/Brickyard Road in Howell was not completed until 2003.<ref name="Bypass2">{{cite press release |url = http://www.nj.gov/transportation/about/press/2003/011603.shtm |title = Route&nbsp;33 Bypass to open January 17, 2003 |publisher = [[New Jersey Department of Transportation]] |date = January 16, 2003 |access-date = June 14, 2007 }}</ref> The project cost $33.7 million in 2003 (equivalent to ${{formatprice|{{inflation|US-GDP|33700000|2003}}}} in {{inflation-year|US-GDP}}{{inflation-fn|US-GDP}}).<ref name="Bypass2"/>

Until 2003, the intersection of US&nbsp;130/Route&nbsp;33 in Robbinsville was configured as an at-grade wye interchange, employing curved ramps for the directional movements. The junction has since been modified to a signalized intersection with ordinary turning lanes.

[[File:Howell Exit.jpg|left|thumb|Route&nbsp;33 eastbound at the Howell Road exit ramp, which has been abandoned]]
The eastbound Howell road exit ramp, which began construction in 2003, was found to be erroneously placed, possibly confusing drivers on Howell Road. An attempt was made to realign the ramp, though this failed, and the exit was abandoned shortly after, and is still inaccessible and rarely maintained.<ref>{{Cite news|first = Larry |last = Higgs |title = N.J. ramp to nowhere called $1.7 million embarassment |url = https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/04/15/ramp-to-nowhere-howell-new-jersey/2084427/ |access-date = January 11, 2024 |newspaper = USA Today |language = en-US }}</ref> Because of this, the ramp has since remains barricaded off, slowly decaying.<ref name="mq3">{{cite web |author = [[Mapquest]] |url = http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?address=Howell%20Rd%20%26%20Vanderveer%20Rd&city=Freehold&state=NJ&zipcode=07728&country=US&title=%3cb%20class%3d%22fn%20org%22%3eHowell%20Rd%20%26amp%3b%20Vanderveer%20Rd%3c%2fb%3e%3cbr%20%2f%3e%20%3cspan%20style%3d%22display%3ainline%3bmargin%2dbottom%3a0px%3b%22%20class%3d%22locality%22%3eFreehold%3c%2fspan%3e%2c%20%3cspan%20style%3d%22display%3ainline%3bmargin%2dbottom%3a0px%3b%22%20class%3d%22region%22%3eNJ%3c%2fspan%3e%20%3cspan%20style%3d%22display%3ainline%3bmargin%2dbottom%3a0px%3b%22%20class%3d%22postal%2dcode%22%3e07728%3c%2fspan%3e%2c%20%20%3cspan%20style%3d%22display%3ainline%3bmargin%2dbottom%3a0px%3b%22%20class%3d%22country |title = Howell Road interchange |access-date = August 26, 2007 }}</ref>

A bridge once carried Route&nbsp;33 over the same Pennsylvania Railroad (now [[Conrail Shared Assets Operations]]) line further south in Robbinsville. The New Jersey Department of Transportation replaced the overpass with a wider, linear roadway in 2009. As the Conrail Shared Assets Operations line was dormant, no [[Level crossing|railroad street]] crossing was installed. Trackage was dismantled two years later in 2011 in between Robbinsville and East Windsor.

The interchange with US 130 was rebuilt from a T-intersection to a four-way in 2009, with the construction of a new road on the southeast side of US&nbsp;130.

On December 31, 2006, the [[New Jersey Turnpike Authority]] released its proposals regarding exit&nbsp;8 on the [[New Jersey Turnpike]]. The old exit&nbsp;8 was to be demolished and replaced with a new interchange. The new exit&nbsp;8 would end at the intersection with Route&nbsp;33, Milford Road, and [[New Jersey Route 133|Route&nbsp;133]] (on the east side of the expressway, instead of the west). This new exit&nbsp;8 would grant direct access to the bypass (without going through any traffic lights), as well as to Route&nbsp;33, using grade-separated interchanges. The new toll gate was to feature a total of 10&nbsp;lanes at the new facility.<ref name="NJ.com">{{cite news |url = http://www.nj.com/news/times/index.ssf?/base/news-2/116762800881490.xml&coll=5 |title = = Pike plan raises concern |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20070103052016/http://www.nj.com/news/times/index.ssf?%2Fbase%2Fnews-2%2F116762800881490.xml&coll=5 |archive-date = January 3, 2007 |newspaper = [[The Trenton Times]] |date = January 1, 2007 }}</ref> The new interchange opened in January 2013.

'''Route&nbsp;33 Business''' ('''Route&nbsp;33 Bus.''') is a short [[List of state highways in New Jersey|state highway]] in [[New Jersey]] that was the original alignment of Route&nbsp;33 before a freeway was built as a bypass of Freehold. This [[business route]] stretches {{convert|6.8|mi|km}} through [[Manalapan Township, New Jersey|Manalapan]], [[Freehold Township, New Jersey|Freehold Township]], [[Freehold Borough, New Jersey|Freehold]], and [[Howell Township, New Jersey|Howell]]. The highway holds the distinction of being the only [[business route]] state highway in all of New Jersey.

[[File:2021-08-26 15 26 37 View west along New Jersey State Route 33 Business (Park Avenue) from the overpass for Monmouth County Route 55 (Kozloski Road-Halls Mill Road) in Freehold Township, Monmouth County, New Jersey.jpg|thumb|right|Route 33 Business westbound at CR 55 in Freehold Township]]
Business Route&nbsp;33 begins at the interchange with Route&nbsp;33, its parent route, in [[Manalapan Township, New Jersey|Manalapan]]. A short distance after, the interchange from Route&nbsp;33 eastbound merges into Business Route&nbsp;33, and the route passes to the south of [[Monmouth Battlefield State Park]] and enters [[Freehold Township, New Jersey|Freehold Township]]. Business Route&nbsp;33 intersects with [[U.S. Route 9 in New Jersey|US&nbsp;9]], becoming Park Avenue. Business Route&nbsp;33 turns to the southeast and enters [[Freehold Borough, New Jersey|Freehold]], passing to the north of the [[Freehold Raceway]] and intersects with West Main Street ([[County Route 537 (New Jersey)|CR 537]]). A short distance later, Business Route&nbsp;33 intersects at a traffic light with South Street ([[New Jersey Route 79|Route&nbsp;79]]) in Downtown Freehold. After the intersection of South Street (Route 79), it crosses back into Freehold Township. Farther east, the route passes over the [[Freehold Industrial Track]] railroad line operated by the Delaware & Raritan River Railroad and interchanges with Halls Mill Road/Kozloski Road ([[List of county routes in Monmouth County, New Jersey#55|CR 55]]). After the interchange with Halls Mill Road/Kozloski Road (CR 55), Business Route 33 enters [[Howell Township, New Jersey|Howell]]. At the intersection of Fairfield Road/Brickyard Road, Business Route&nbsp;33 enters the interchange with Route&nbsp;33 and the freeway, where the designation terminates.<ref name="bing 33 Bus">{{cite map |map = Overview map of New Jersey Route 33 Business |map-url = http://www.maps.bing.com/maps/?FORM=Z9LH8#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 |title = Bing Maps |year = 2009 |author1 = [[Microsoft]] |author2 = [[NAVTEQ]] |publisher = Microsoft |access-date = November 21, 2009 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20100309043423/http://www.maps.bing.com/maps/?FORM=Z9LH8#JmNwPTQwLjI0Njk0MjU2NDg0NTA4fi03NC4yNzk3MjgyNjM2MTY1NiZsdmw9MTMmc3R5PXImcnRwPXBvcy40MC4yNTQwNjk4NjQ3NDk5MV8tNzQuMzM1OTUwMzE0OTk4NjNfbmVhciUyMFNSLTMzJTJDJTIwRW5nbGlzaHRvd24lMkMlMjBOZXclMjBKZXJzZXklMjAwNzcyNiUyQyUyMFVuaXRlZCUyMFN0YXRlc19fX2FffnBvcy40MC4yNTU0MTA5NjkyNTczNTVfLTc0LjMyNTY1ODY3OTAwODQ4X25lYXIlMjBTUi0zMyUyMEJ1cyUyMCUyNiUyMFJhbXAlMkMlMjBFbmdsaXNodG93biUyQyUyME5ldyUyMEplcnNleSUyMDA3NzI2JTJDJTIwVW5pdGVkJTIwU3RhdGVzX19fYV9+cG9zLjQwLjI1OTM1ODUxMDM3NTAyXy03NC4yOTM3MjY5ODA2ODYxOV9uZWFyJTIwMTIlMjBTUi0zMyUyMEJ1cyUyQyUyMEZyZWVob2xkJTJDJTIwTmV3JTIwSmVyc2V5JTIwMDc3MjglMkMlMjBVbml0ZWQlMjBTdGF0ZXNfX19hX35wb3MuNDAuMjU4NzQ5NjQ4OTI4NjRfLTc0LjI5MDI1NzU0MzMyNTQyX25lYXIlMjBTUi0zMyUyMEJ1cyUyQyUyMEZyZWVob2xkJTJDJTIwTmV3JTIwSmVyc2V5JTIwMDc3MjglMkMlMjBVbml0ZWQlMjBTdGF0ZXNfX19hX35wb3MuNDAuMjQ5NjY3Njg5MjA0MjE2Xy03NC4yNTgwNjQzMjk2MjQxOF84MDAlMjBTdGF0ZSUyMFJvdXRlJTIwMzMlMkMlMjBGcmVlaG9sZCUyQyUyME5KJTIwMDc3MjgtODQzMF9fX2FffnBvcy40MC4yMzQ0NTM1MjkxMTk0OV8tNzQuMjIxOTYyNDY2ODM1OThfX19fYV8mcnRvcD0wfjB+MH4=#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 |archive-date = March 9, 2010 |url-status = dead }}</ref>
