Among the strong attractions of Mountainside is it's close proximity and easy access to numerous modes
of public transportation and highways.
Located less than 25 miles from New York City,
Mountainside is a prime location for individuals who work in the city but
desire to live in a beautiful suburban community. Residents
have easy access to commuter buses and trains via bus stops in
Mountainside, and train stations in nearby Summit and
Westfield.
For those who prefer to drive, Mountainside boasts easy
access to two of the most-used roads in the New
Jersey. Route 22 runs through the Borough
and provides instant access to local points east, toward Newark/New
York; and west, toward the corporate centers of
Somerset/Hunterdon Counties and western New Jersey.
The other major road which touches the northern tip of
the Borough is Route 78. This highway provides a pipeline to the
east/west places of employment, and can also quickly provide access the
other major state highways such as the Garden
State Parkway, Route 287, and Routes
202/206.
