A few of these advanced far enough to have borings, and you can find the associated plans by burrowing through: https://njgin.state.nj.us/DOT_GDMS/

What's up with the eastern end of unbuilt NJ 90.  I've only heard of it ending at NJ 73 after crossing the NJTPK.
NYC roads said that it would terminate in Mount Laurel. I crudely went based on that.
It would have gone at least to 295, possibly beyond.

Speaking of, here's the plan from the GDMS for the 90 freeway tie-in to Route 73: https://geo.nj.gov/arcgis/rest/services/Transportation/NJDOT_GDMS/MapServer/1/2194/attachments/1466

Somewhere on this forum, somebody embedded an image of an old pamphlet about the New Jersey Turnpike that showed proposed routes for several (certainly not all) of the unbuilt highways. I found it interesting to view, and it was easier to view on my iPad due to the easier ability to zoom an image on there, but I simply don't remember who posted it, when, or in what thread, and I don't remember any of the text terms in the post to help me search for it.

I found it by searching. njroadfan posted it and here's the link (which worked when I tried it just now):

It works.
That doesn't mean it works for everyone.  It says the album is set to private.

It's weird, I was able to view it the other day when I found that link, but now when I try to view it I can't see it. I don't remember what I searched for to find it on the forum, though.

Edited to add: Here's the original post where he linked it. I remember I had mentioned that it was easier to read when I used my iPad because I could zoom in more easily than I could on my PC, so searching for "iPad" and "zoom" with my username led me to it.

The pictures are on Photobucket. Only a select group of people will ever be allowed to see them now.

I also remember a bypass planned around Glassboro for US 322.  I believe that would have commenced from the US 322 and US 130 cloverleaf and tied into the ACE somewhere near Williamstown I read someplace.
Every day is a winding road, you just got to get used to it.
