***********************************************
Route 28 (Lincoln Avenue) between North and South Avenues on the Cranford border may be the shortest
state highway in the United States. It is less than 1/4 of a mile long. It was originally called Route 22 (
you can see the old route # on the bridge on North Avenue-see below) and was to connect the current Route 1 with the
current Route 22 in Springfield. The state changed highway numbers in the 1930s and the section build in Garwood
was the only part of the highway ever constructed.
