Jersey City
We will be travelling from Assateague Maryland to Liberty Harbor RV park in Jersey City next week. We are unfamiliar with the area and we're wondering if there are areas en route that should avoided. ...

Between Assateague and Jersey City on the major highways there are no tunnels and no height restrictions that I know of. There are two possible routes I would consider.
1. Pick up route 113 at Berlin and head north to join with route 1. You want the Delaware Memorial Bridge, which is the southern end of the NJ Turnpike (I95). IIRC, our GPS had us get off route 1 onto route 13 to join I295 to go over the bridge. I'm pretty sure you need to get off the Turnpike near Newark Airport onto I78 to get to Liberty Harbor, but since we haven't been there your GPS should know better.
2. When we come home from Assateague, we like to take the Cape May/Lewes Ferry. The ferry is a 90 minute ride that you and the kids may enjoy. Check the cost for your rig.
We head north out of Assateague and drive through Ocean City and on up the coast on route 1 to the ferry (watch signs). From the ferry it is easy to get onto the Garden State Parkway (RVs allowed). The parkway joins with the NJ Turnpike at Woodbridge.
