Camden County US 30 crosses the
Delaware River into
New Jersey on the
Benjamin Franklin Bridge from
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, along with
I-676 and the
PATCO Speedline. The road continues east into the downtown area of
Camden in
Camden County as a seven-lane freeway maintained by the
Delaware River Port Authority that passes to the north of the Camden Athletic Complex, located at the former site of the
Campbell's Field baseball stadium, and comes to the westbound toll plaza for the bridge. Past the toll plaza, US 30 splits from I-676 at an interchange and heads southeast on the six-lane,
divided Admiral Wilson Boulevard maintained by the
New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) and named for
Henry Braid Wilson. This portion, formerly known as Bridge Approach Boulevard, is an early example of a roadway designed for the automobile, and was home to the first
drive-in movie theatre. US 30 turns south-southwest past the CR 542 concurrency before heading south. The route crosses CR 561 and turns southeast again, entering
Mullica Township. Here, the White Horse Pike enters more forested areas with a few buildings, running a short distance to the northeast of the Atlantic City Line. Past the intersection with CR 623 in the developed community of
Elwood, US 30 becomes a divided highway with grass median and
jughandles. This configuration continues until
Egg Harbor City, when the median ends. In Egg Harbor City, US 30 passes a mix of homes and businesses, intersecting the northern terminus of
Route 50 and
CR 563 in the center of town. At this point, CR 563 forms a concurrency with US 30 and the two routes continue through more of the town before crossing into
Galloway Township at the intersection with CR 674. The road passes through rural areas with some development, reaching the community of
Cologne. In this area, there is a crossroads with CR 614 before CR 563 splits from US 30 by turning south onto Tilton Road. Past Cologne, the road reaches a junction with
CR 575 in the developed community of
Pomona. Following this intersection, US 30 continues southeast past wooded residential neighborhoods to the northeast, becoming a divided highway again. The route comes to a partial interchange with the
Garden State Parkway, with access to and from the northbound direction of the parkway. Past this interchange, the road heads through commercial areas and continues into
Absecon. In Absecon, the White Horse Pike widens to six lanes and crosses
CR 651 before intersecting
US 9. After passing near the
Absecon station along the Atlantic City Line, US 30 crosses Shore Road, which heads north as
Route 157 and south as
CR 585. The road turns south, narrowing back to four lanes before entering marshland to the west of Absecon Bay. There is a northbound exit and southbound entrance to
CR 646 before US 30 crosses the Jonathans Thorofare into
Atlantic City, where the name becomes Absecon Boulevard as it turns to the east. Absecon Boulevard crosses Newfound Thorofare before heading south and passing over Duck Thorofare. The road passes by the
Jersey-Atlantic Wind Farm and heads southeast across Beach Thorofare. At this point, US 30 widens to six lanes and passes to the north of residential neighborhoods, with maintenance of the road switching from NJDOT to the
South Jersey Transportation Authority. After crossing the Penrose Canal, the route passes over the tunnel carrying the
Atlantic City–Brigantine Connector and intersects the southern terminus of
Route 87, where there is a ramp to the northbound Atlantic City–Brigantine Connector. The road passes areas of development and intersects an access road to the southbound Atlantic City–Brigantine Connector as well as
Route 187. Two blocks later, US 30 ends at the intersection with Virginia Avenue and Adriatic Avenue, where Absecon Boulevard continues east as an unnumbered road. == History ==
