 Transportation

Northeast Location 


Start your day at Sterling and be in Manhattan, Philadelphia or Hartford in time for lunch.

Highway access is one of the strongest features of Sterling Business Park. Exit 17 on Interstate 84 is less than one mile south of the park, the confluence of
I-380, I-81 and I-84 is 15 minutes to the west, and the NJ/NY border is 30 minutes to the east. The park’s location on I-84 is removed from more congested urban areas, providing easier commutes and reduced freight costs, while allowing businesses to reach major metro areas, e.g. New York City, Philadelphia and Hartford, within a very reasonable 2 to 3 hours.
