Emmaus to Somerset, NJ - distance?
I was just wondering if anyone knew how long of a commute it would be from Emmaus to the town of Somerset, NJ??? This is, of course, a roundabout number i'm looking for ...w/o traffic/snow etc

According to Google maps, it's about one hour and 12 minutes. Sounds about right to me. Looks like lots of room for pockets of traffic and slow down's. ugh!

Thanks for the quick response - I guess Emmaus is out : ( I figured I'd look into it bc I've heard that it is very nice and East Penn schools. Oh well. lol Thanks  |

But it looks like (according to Googlemaps anyway) that there is only ten minutes more then if you left from Nazareth. Might be worth it....

Nazareth is right at an hour with no traffic. It's taken as much as 3 hours (when 78 is shut down), but usually is about 1:15 with normal am/pm traffic.

I've done the commute from Bethlehem township.. 33 south to 78 west to 22 west at Clinton... took me just under an hour. Sun glare can be bad on 78, but never had any real problems. Emmaus would add an extra 20 min to that trip though. Naz might at 15 min.

I agree that Emmaus would be too far away. It takes me anywhere from just under an hour (Davidson Ave. vicinity) to an hour and fifteen minutes (Franklin Township) to get to Somerset from Bethlehem Township. I used to live in various parts of Central Jersey and I recall my commute on I-78 not being as bad as on I-287 in Somerset and Edison area.
