That's quite a delay. Exit 57 is the exit for US-130 and Exit 60 is the exit for I-195/NJ-29/NJ-129.

Traffic in the White Horse section of Hamilton Township is at a standstill right now as a result of the accident. Traffic in Bordentown is also very heavy at this time.

By the way, the New Jersey Turnpike is the suggested alternate route if you're heading northbound.

Traffic is also backed up on the southbound side of the roadway, as you can imagine. Police activity is blocking two lanes between Arena Drive (exit #61) and I-195 (Exit 60).
