This tunnel is a pretty tight drive as you pass through in your vehicle. As I said, this tunnel will stay within your memories as part of South Amboy, New Jersey. I lived in South Amboy, New Jersey and grew up in Central New Jersey, which many claim that central New Jersey does not exist. I disagree. Central New Jersey certainly is a place. It is not the more rural south Jersey nor claim Philadelphia as their city, nor is it directly in the shadow of Manhattan (though here is within the shadow of Staten Island, New York). This "hole-in-the-wall" is part of the landscape of my memories and I am better for having driven through it (definitely a better driver). Again, these little quirks will forever stay within you no matter if your life journey took you far from South Amboy, New Jersey. It is perhaps more poignant will you remember something as seemingly inconsequential as a narrow bridge as a part of a community that you fondly cherish. I remember this "hole-in-the-wall" and smile at its memory.

    Driscoll Bridge - One of my favorite bridges!

    It's a bridge. A very bridgey bridge at that! Probably one of the bridgiest bridges I've ever gone…read moreover! This one goes over the Raritan River. Which, as you may know is a very rivery river! Bwahahaha! Honestly, I like this bridge a lot. The Garden State Parkway did a great job with this bridge. 5 lanes each direction, almost no traffic. Traffic usually flows pretty smoothly! It is tall enough to allow all kinds of ships to pass underneath it without any trouble. This is the standard other bridges should be built to. I travel over bridges frequently, and they are usually horrible thoroughfares! This is not. I really have nothing else to say about it, except it's a great bridge. All in all, it is a nice bridge, designed well, and it serves its purpose appropriately! Trust me this is one of the better bridges you will ever go over. Thank me later lol! If you don't like it, please let me know.

    Ahh, the Driscoll Bridge. This bridge has been around for a very long time, long before I was born!…read moreThis is part of the Garden State Parkway, and it's parallel with the Thomas Edison Bridge that's positioned right next to it (US-9). There are multiple lanes on both sides of the bridge. This bridge has no architecture on the top or sides. What I mean is that there aren't any arches or tower-like structures that you would drive under while crossing major bridges. Everything is completely open as you cross over. But then again, you don't cross a bridge solely for the purpose of looking at the visible architectures, if any. The bridge allows commuters and travelers to cross so they can travel South towards the Jersey Shore, and North towards Paramus and the NY Line. This is one of those bridges in which for one-half you have to drive up a "hill", and then for the other half, you have to drive down. Once I crossed the bridge going North, I got to see the exits for US-9 and the NJ Turnpike. Going South, well, I got to see the toll booth that you had to pay through to move on. Yay? I always enjoyed driving in the night whenever I drove home Northbound on this bridge. This was when I got to see the city lights in the night while driving up to the top of the bridge. Who doesn't like that? Of course I was also able to see the lights from the Outerbridge Crossing. Nice! If you see the city lights in the night, play EuroDance and remixed party music (or whatever your favorite genre is) in your car, and have no major traffic or weather issues, then you've got a pretty good ride. Yeah, my two recent rides were good. Be careful when you're going down the "hill" of this bridge during rainy and icy weather. It can or could be slippery. It sucks when there are traffic jams that stretch throughout and possibly beyond the bridge. Overall, this bridge serves the purpose of letting us crossover to areas where we need to be at.

It was also a dream to get to travel there with my close friends and for them to see Italy for the first time! Our trip was curated so thoughtfully by Anthony. The food, the wine, the places we stayed, and the people we met along the way were all wonderful. From wine tasting in Tuscany, to the private tour of the winery itself, to hiking in Elba, to spontaneously going to the Montefalco festival (we were lucky that we happened to be nearby the weekend of the festival!!)... I experienced a whole new Italy I'd never seen before, new culinary styles, new wine varietals and exquisite scenery. Anthony has a joy and passion for Italy and travel and as his guests, we felt that joy throughout the entire trip. 5-stars for sure :)

However, he had made sure to create an itinerary that had a perfect blend of activity, relaxation and exploration and managed to split us off if needed. Honestly, I was a little apprehensive because I wasn't sure what the service Sojourn provided was for, but Anthony ensures that you are not stressed about a single thing throughout your journey. He had driven us to each of our destination points safely and had also booked us for local experiences that we would never have otherwise found. Between the private wine tours, once-in-a-lifetime dinners, and the freedom to explore everything else with no worries, it was truly a perfect vacation. Thanks Anthony!

Only 11 miles of superhighway and for the privilege of driving on it, I was charged $1.90 for my out of state toll transponder. $0.17 per mile seems like a lot considering it was over in 10 minutes. Traffic was moving swiftly - I was going 70ish and getting passed by others consistently. The roadway is smooth and the toll plaza was easy to negotiate. One thing they seem to do well is take money. There are service areas along the way - I stopped at Montvale - so that you don't have to get off the roadway and search around for food or fuel. I'd choose the GSP again to drive through New Jersey.

I have not traveled on the entire parkway leaving me with a lot of info to share, but expect most traffic to occur from the Thruway (the northern terminus) until reaching Hockhockson, mainly due to connections with NYC. I have not experienced any problems, but anyone who has limited knowledge of this area, pull up Google Maps and have it in handy when needed. Be prepared for tollage along the stretch, and the costs. Along the whole parkway, there are service areas to stop to eat and rest. Drive safely and carefully on this parkway.
