Alternate 517
Alternate 517 was a northern alternative to 517 in Sussex County, bypassing Sparta and Andover. It probably died because it took many turns along its course. To follow it from south to north in present-day numbers, it turned left on CR 616 west (all numbers are Sussex CRs), then right on CR 663 north. It turned right onto 94 north for a short distance, then cut the corner to 15 via CR 659. After following 15 north a little bit, it turned right again onto CR 661. Finally, the alignment came back through Hamburg to 94, where it turned left and ended multiplexed.

Spur 519
Spur 519 was a short connector between 29 and the parallel 519. It is now Hunterdon County 651.

"Truck 519"
Truck 519 is signed to bypass the 122/519 multiplex and a sharp corner where those routes meet, but is not an official route. It follows 122 and 22 between junctions with 519 in Pohatcong and Greenwich Townships.

521
521 originally used 560 and Old Mine Road, heading straight into River Rd in Montague Twp, instead of multiplexing as far as it now does with US 206. This may be why Old Mine Rd remained open along the stretch that was formerly 521 after much of the rest in Sussex County was temporarily closed.

522
Between US 1 and US 130, 522 is on municipally maintained Promenade Blvd. Middlesex County considers 522 as extending west to 27 along the remainder of Promenade Blvd., but NJDOT and the Straight Line Diagrams disagree. Old 522 on Ridge Rd became (or always was) municipally maintained itself, and so far has no known number by Middlesex County (if it's still a county road). The new South Brunswick road continues west to 27, but is not part of 522. An eastward extension of Promenade is planned, which will eliminate 522's multiplex with US 130. The county may take over Promenade upon completion, at least as far west as US 1, but this is doubtful. At one point 522 was planned to bypass Jamesburg to the north and may not have even ended in Freehold, but Old Bridge [New Brunswick Daily Home News, 3/25/1969].

Spur 523
Spur 523 went south from Lamington on 523 to Easton Turnpike west of North Branch, old 28. It is now mostly Somerset CR 665, but the southern section (according to SPUI's old maps) went west on Easton Tpk to end at US 22, which is now CR 614.

Spur 525
There were two Spur 525s in Somerset County. The northern one, now CR 640, connected 525 with the southern Spur 527 (now Somerset CR 613) east of Liberty Corners. Somerset CR 640, which replaced this Spur 525, continues west to 512 on old 525 in Liberty Corner, which was bypassed in the 1970s by the current alignment. For the handful of years in which the current 525 may have coexisted with Spur 525, it is possible Spur 525 extended along the old 525 to meet 512 as well - or that piece may have immediately become CR 640.
The second Spur 525 is just a tiny bit south of the other one, heading west from 525 to US 202/206. This is now Somerset CR 620, which continues west to CR 665 (Lamington Rd), which is former Spur 523. This Spur 525 may have ended there, but that is unlikely based on the available old maps.

526
526 was just realigned outside Robbinsville to meet 130 directly across from 33. However, it still follows the old road between 130 and 33, requiring a convoluted routing that takes 526 off 33, up 130, and back to 33 where it continues east. I would expect this to be soon corrected so that 526 stays on 33 a little longer. The Straight Line Diagrams now show 526 ending at its westernmost junction with 571. Accordingly, the beginning of the route is in italics below.

527
Millburn tried signing 527W and 527E in its town center, along with W and E versions of 577, on its one-way pair of Millburn Ave and Essex St. The shields have been replaced because these routes don't exist, but a couple of signal overhead signs remain. Also, 527 is signed as beginning from Essex CR 604 (W Lindsley Ave) in Cedar Grove, but does technically multiplex for 100 feet to 23.

Spur 527
There were two Spur 527s, and both of them are departed. The southern one ran from Warren Twp to Bernardsville along Somerset CR 651, 512, and 613 to US 202. Its remnant can be seen behind a CR 651 shield on I-78 Exit 36 signs.
The second Spur 527 connected Millburn to Livingston. It ran up Hobart Gap Rd from the southern beginning of what is now Essex CR 608 at 124, which turns into White Oak Ridge Road, which takes a hard left, and then becomes E Hobart Gap Rd again in Livingston. CR 608 continues onto West Hobart Gap Rd, but former Spur 527 turned onto Essex CR 649, which is now JFK Parkway to the south and connects to Union CR 649. The rest of Spur 527 is current CR 649 to its end at 527. One shield remains from the 1950's, when the route was first signed with embossed metal shields, and there are a couple of new, erroneous ones on NJ 124. Essex County appears to be using an outdated route log - Spur 577 is also signed once more in the field.

Spur 528
Spur 528 followed Burlington CR 670 east from US 130 to its end, then straight along Saylors Pond Road, then straight ahead, picking up in the middle of current Burlington CR 616. It ended where Ocean CR 616 ends, at 528. Truck 541 used to end at Spur 528, and still ends at CR 670 instead of picking up the slack to US 130.

530
530 used to extend further west, along what is currently 38 to where that becomes a divided highway, then along Burlington CR 612 to 537. 38 was planned to extend east as a divided highway or freeway to its other section, which is now 138. Visit the 38 page for more history. A 1955 map indicates that 530 may have once used North Pemberton Road (Burlington CR 630) instead of South Pemberton Road, probably ending at 537 in Eastampton.
