heads northeast into more farmland as it comes to a turn north onto Colesville-Lusscroft Road. The route runs through more rural areas with some residential development, eventually making a bend to the northeast. CR 519 continues to an intersection with Route 23, where it turns north for a concurrency with that route. The two routes pass through forested areas with some homes until CR 519 splits from Route 23 by heading north on Greenville Road. This road carries the route north, entering dense forests and crossing the Appalachian Trail before it comes to the New York border. At the state line, CR 519 ends and the road continues into Orange County, New York as CR 55. History From Mill Street, starting about 250 feet northwest of its current intersection (following realignment in the 1970s from Spring Street) with Water Street at Trinity Street in Newton, to the currently-named Morris Turnpike in Hampton Township, CR 519 follows the route of the former Morris (and Sussex) Turnpike. A spur route, County Route 519 Spur, existed which is now Hunterdon County Route 651. On June 12, 2014, a truck weighing over attempted to cross over a 114-year-old iron pony truss bridge crossing the Lockatong Creek in Kingwood Township causing the bridge to buckle. Hunterdon County, which is responsible for maintaining the bridge, closed the bridge to await replacement. A new truss bridge and concrete culvert opened on April 1, 2016.
