County Route 567, abbreviated CR 567, is a county highway in the U.S. state of New Jersey. The highway extends 10.02 miles (16.13 km) from Amwell Road (CR 514) in Hillsborough Township to Union Avenue (Route 28) in Raritan Borough.

Route description

CR 567 begins at an intersection with CR 514 in Hillsborough Township, heading north on two-lane undivided Neshanic Station Road. The road runs through wooded areas before heading along the east bank of the South Branch Raritan River, intersecting CR 667 and passing under a Norfolk Southern railroad line. The route runs near farms as it crosses the river and enters Branchburg Township. At this point, CR 567 intersects CR 667 again and becomes Pheasant Run Road before making a northeast turn onto South Branch Road, with CR 628 continuing northwest along Pheasant Run Road. Residential development increases as the route continues northeast and passes the Neshanic Valley Golf Course. CR 567 begins to run closer to the South Branch Raritan River again as it reaches a junction with CR 620. CR 567 passes north through some farm fields before turning northeast at an intersection with CR 646.^[1][2]

A short distance later, the route turns east onto Old York Road, with CR 637 heading west on that road to an intersection with US 202. CR 567 enters residential areas and crosses the North Branch Raritan River into Bridgewater Township. It parallels the Raritan River to the north as it continues into Raritan and becomes Somerset Avenue. In Raritan, CR 567 turns north onto First Avenue, with CR 626 continuing east on Somerset Avenue. The route crosses under New Jersey Transit’s Raritan Valley Line before reaching the US 202 intersection. Past US 202, CR 567 passes more homes before ending at Route 28.^[1][2]

The entire route is in Somerset County.
