 The designation came as a spur of U.S. Route 130/State Highway Route 44 in Paulsboro.A year later, the Route 44-T designation was extended to end at State Highway Route 42 in Williamstown.Although plans for a tunnel continued into the late 1940s, no tunnel was ever constructed, and the Route 44-T designation was repealed by the state highway renumbering on January 1, 1953.
