New Jersey Route 147 is a state highway in New Jersey. It is a short connector between U.S. Route 9 (intersecting it at Middle Township, Cape May County) and North Wildwood at New York Avenue. Route 147, much like Route 152, does not meet its parent route, although Indian Trail Road (Cape May CR 618), an extension of Route 147 after US 9 which is not signed, continues to New Jersey Route 47.
