The Exit 89 on the Garden State Parkway, which replaced Exit 88, is now open. Exit 88 closed permanently in November.
The new 89 A northbound exit will take you towards Lakewood, and the 89 B towards Brick.
The southbound Exit 89 B will take you to Route 70, and C will take you to Cedarbridge. 89 A is expected to open this weekend.

Do they plan on opening up an entrance to the GSP southbound from the 70? I thought this was one of the goals of this project. Its absurd that you if your in south lakewood, you must travel 5 miles down the 9 to pick up the GSP Southbound when they can open an entrance from the 70.
@jermiah, it looks like they’re working on a southbound entrance on airport Rd, where 89c leads to
Jermiah, even if they put a south bound exit on 70 it’s less mileage & quicker to still use the 9 entrance from where u are. your forgetting about the extra mileage on the parkway getting in between the 2 exits & 2 extra tolls. 1 in between & 1 to get on. neither at the route 9 if u use it. not too mention bumper to bumper traffic at times during the warmer months.
If i am coming from Toms River on the parkway to Lakewood is there an exit that I can get out at Cedar Bridge Road? Also from Clifton Ave to get on to the GSP going south, what is the closes entrance to get onto the GSP?
