Route 15 is a state highway in New Jersey, spanning Morris and Sussex counties, which travels for 19 miles (31 km) from West MacFarland Street (U.S. Route 46) in Dover to an intersection of U.S. Route 206 and Sussex Road (CR 565) in Frankford Township. It becomes a divided highway in Wharton until becoming a freeway bypass near Sparta. Route 15 was originally Route 6A from 1927 until 1953, when a renumbering occurred and the route was given its current number. Since the finishing of the Sparta Bypass, the New Jersey Department of Transportation and North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority have considered more bypasses and alignment changes for Route 15.
