Vineland's Location

The secret to success, as the old adage goes, is “location, location, location.” Simply put, Vineland offers its community a wonderful location with a network of major roadways and transportation options that connect Vineland to the neighboring metropolitan areas of New York, Philadelphia, Atlantic City and Washington D.C.

Getting around in the Vineland area is generally an effortless process, as residents don’t have to face the traffic hassles encountered by residents of larger cities. Major road improvements, including resurfacing and widening projects, are taking place to advance infrastructure and support our City’s growth.

Though it took more than 20 years to complete the 40-mile stretch, the construction of Route 55 has opened the world of commerce and expanded leisure activities to businesses and residents of Cumberland County. The opening of Route 55 has simplified access to Philadelphia, reducing the drive by at least a half hour, and acts as a feeder to routes leading to the New Jersey Turnpike and Garden State Parkway. In short, it is Cumberland County’s “gateway to the world.”

The Vineland Regional Transportation Center opened in 2003 at West and Landis Avenues in Vineland, providing a modern, efficient bus terminal for New Jersey Transit. The complex is convenient to several restaurants and other amenities for travelers.

A brief 45-minute drive leads you to the nearby Philadelphia International Airport, which provides transportation to all parts of the world. The airport serves as the principal gateway for the fifth largest metropolitan population in the United States.

A new world of opportunities for travel and economic development are opening up in southern New Jersey because of the recently expanded Atlantic City International Airport, located approximately 25 miles from Vineland and 10 miles northwest of Atlantic City. The terminal can comfortably accommodate 1.3 million air travelers a year on direct and connector flights throughout the country. The Airport’s aviation services include scheduled air service and charter service as well as ground handling of aircraft, fueling, aircraft maintenance, parking, registration and collection of landing and parking fees through fixed-based operators.

With a 6,100-foot runway, Millville Airport is the only FAA Flight Service Station in New Jersey that is open 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, including holidays. After Millville Army Air Field was dedicated by the US War Department in 1941, Millville Airport became known as America’s First Defense Airport. In addition to general aviation facilities, the Millville Army Air Field Museum (MAAFM) preserves the history of the Army Air Field for the enlightenment and enjoyment of visitors.

The NJ Transit Atlantic City Rail Line (which operates between the seaside resort city and Philadelphia with stops at points in between) offers connections to Amtrak and SEPTA at Philadelphia’s 30th Street Station.

Freight service provided by Winchester & Western and Conrail is available throughout Cumberland County at competitive rates. All municipal industrial parks in Cumberland County are readily accessible to these transportation facilities. Conrail operates about 250 miles of rail lines in the Philadelphia-South Jersey area.
