Governor Murphy has issued Executive Order No. 107, directing all residents to stay at home until further notice. The order provides for certain exceptions, such as obtaining essential goods or services, seeking medical attention, visiting family or close friends, reporting to work, or engaging in outdoor activities.

While there may be exceptions, residents are directed to stay at home until further notice to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

If necessary, residents can travel out of state. However other cities and states may have restrictions or self-quarantine orders in place for travelers so check with your destination's public health department as you may be asked to stay home and avoid contact with others for up to 14 days after travel.

Before travelling, consult with the CDC's guide to help you decide whether it is safe to travel or not.

International Travel

The CDC recommends avoiding all non-essential international travel due to the global COVID-19 pandemic.
If you travelled internationally in the last 14 days, the CDC recommends you stay home, monitor your health, and practice social distancing for 14 days after you return from travel.

Airports

Airports remain open and air travel continues, however the situation remains fluid and Governor Murphy has issued Executive Order No. 107, directing all residents to stay at home until further notice with few exceptions.

For flights, cancellations, or rerouting, please contact your airline directly for the latest information.

For additional domestic travel information, please visit the CDC, and for additional international travel information, please visit travel.state.gov

The situation is changing frequently, so please check the above resources often for the most up-to-date information.

All decisions regarding the screening of international passengers arriving at all airports in the United States are made by federal agencies including the CDC and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). As it has since January, the Port Authority is providing all necessary support for the screening currently being carried out by the CDC and CBP of passengers at its airports and any ensuing referrals for quarantine are in cooperation with state and city health authorities.

Bridges and Tunnels

Bridges and tunnels remain open. As of Sunday, March 22, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey will only collect tolls by electronic means and temporarily suspend cash toll collection at the George Washington Bridge, Lincoln Tunnel, and Holland Tunnel.

Motorists with E-ZPass will experience no change, using any open toll lane to have the toll debited from their prepaid E-ZPass account. For motorists without E-ZPass, an image of the vehicle's license plate will be captured and a notice seeking payment of the toll will be mailed to the registered owner of the vehicle. Motorists billed by mail will pay the amount of the standard cash toll; no additional fees will charged.
