Nodes of the New Jersey State Development and Redevelopment Plan New Jersey

This dataset contains the boundaries of Nodes of the NJ State Development and Redevelopment Plan (NJSDRP). A Node is an existing or planned concentration of facilities and activities which are not organized in a compact form. Types of nodes include Commercial-Manufacturing nodes and Heavy Industry-Transportation-Utility nodes. An Existing Node is a concentration of facilities and activities that are not organized in a compact form and are encouraged to be retrofitted over time to reduce automobile dependency, diversify land uses, and enhance linkages to communities. A new Node may identify new heavy industry, transportation or utility facilities and activities as part of Plan Endorsement. A new Node should be organized in a compact form and located in Centers and other appropriate areas in Metropolitan or Suburban Planning Areas or Centers in Fringe, Rural or Environmentally Sensitive Planning Areas. Refer to the NJSDRP for further description of the geographic nature of Nodes.
