Brielle Circle, Traffic circle at Routes 34, 35, and 70 intersection in Wall Township, New Jersey.
Brielle Circle was a traffic intersection in Wall Township where Routes 34, 35, and 70 converged. The circular design allowed vehicles from all three roads to navigate through a continuous roundabout path.
The circle was built in the 1930s during a period of highway development in New Jersey. It functioned as an important junction for over 70 years until major reconstruction work redesigned the intersection completely in 2001.
Local residents relied on Brielle Circle as a primary reference point for navigating between coastal communities and inland destinations in Monmouth County.
The area now features modern traffic signals and clearly marked turn lanes that guide drivers efficiently through the intersection. Visitors driving through the region should note the separate turn paths designed to keep traffic flowing smoothly.
The reconstruction project was among New Jersey's earliest attempts to replace a traditional roundabout with a fully grade-separated interchange design. This approach introduced separate jughandle exits that became a model for other highway improvements across the state.
