Route 14 ran from Egg Harbor City to Cape May City.
Southbound side, bridge over Stephan Creek in Estell Manor. This bridge appears to have fallen into a million pieces and epoxied back together. At least they preserved it. There are actually 2 separate bridges on this side of the road. We had to come back here to get a better picture. Photo taken 8/5/2001 |

Same side, showing the date stamp (1926). This is the only fully-visible trace of the Route 14 markings we were able to find. Strangley enough, the bridges on the other side of the road - obscured by barricades - are dated 1922. Photo taken 8/5/2001 |

Heading south on Old Route 14 toward the terminus at Cape May. This road is now called NJ 50. Photo taken 9/1/2000 |
