context_page_description: U.S. Route 1/9 is the 31.01-mile long concurrency of US 1 and US 9 from their junction in Woodbridge Township, Middlesex County, New Jersey, north to New York City. The route is a multilane road, with some freeway portions, that runs through urbanized areas of northern New Jersey adjacent to New York City. Throughout most of its length in New Jersey, the road runs near the New Jersey Turnpike/Interstate 95. In Fort Lee, US 1/9 merges onto I-95 and crosses the Hudson River on the George Washington Bridge, where the two U.S. routes split a short distance into New York. US 1/9 intersects several major roads, including I-278 in Linden, Route 81 in Elizabeth, I-78 and US 22 in Newark, Route 139 in Jersey City, Route 3 and Route 495 in North Bergen, and US 46 in Palisades Park. Between Newark and Jersey City, US 1/9 runs along the Pulaski Skyway. Trucks are banned from this section of road and must use US 1/9 Truck. The concurrency between US 1 and US 9 is commonly referred to as "1 and 9". Some signage for the concurrency, as well as the truck route, combines the two roads into one shield, separated by a hyphen or an ampersand.
context_section_description: At the New Jersey/New York border on the bridge, US 46 ends and I-95 and US 1/9 continue into the borough of Manhattan in New York City and onto the Trans-Manhattan Expressway.  After an interchange with NY 9A (the Henry Hudson Parkway), the freeway comes to an interchange with Broadway at the George Washington Bridge Bus Station. At this point, the US 1/9 concurrency ends, with US 9 heading north on Broadway and I-95 and US 1 continuing east toward The Bronx.

  Upper right - Combined using an ampersand, mostly phased out 
  Lower right - Combined using a dash, mostly new signage
