Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund 

LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus New Jersey Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund, covering the six-month period from April 1, 2006, through September 30, 2006.

After more than two years of steady and gradual increases, the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) held short-term interest rates unchanged at its meetings in August and September.The Fed has indicated that the U.S. economy has moved to a slower-growth phase of its cycle, as evidenced by softening housing markets in many regions of the United States.Yet, energy prices have moderated from record highs, calming fears that the economy may fall into a full-blown recession.

Most sectors of the U.S. fixed-income market rallied in anticipation of and in response to the pause in the Fed’s tightening campaign, including municipal bonds. Investors apparently are optimistic that higher borrowing costs and moderating home values may wring current inflationary pressures from the economy. In addition, most states and municipalities have continued to report higher-than-expected tax receipts as a result of the recovering economy, helping to support the credit quality of many municipal bond issuers. As always, we encourage you to talk with your financial advisor about these and other developments to help ensure that your portfolio remains aligned with your current tax-managed needs and future investment goals.

For information about how the fund performed during the reporting period, as well as market perspectives, we have provided a Discussion of Fund Performance given by the fund’s portfolio manager.

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

W. Michael Petty, Portfolio Manager

How did Dreyfus New Jersey Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund perform relative to its benchmark?

For the six-month period ended September 30, 2006, the fund achieved a total return of 3.24% .¹ In comparison, the Lehman Brothers 7-Year Municipal Bond Index (the “Index”), the fund’s benchmark index, achieved a total return of 3.39% for the same period.² In addition, the average total return for all funds reported in the Lipper Other States Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds category was 2.81% ..³

Municipal bonds rallied over the second half of the reporting period when the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) refrained from raising short-term interest rates and investors looked forward to a slower-growth economic environment. The fund produced higher returns than its Lipper category average, primarily due to its emphasis on securities toward the longer end of its maturity range. However, fees and expenses that are not reflected in the Index’s performance prevented the fund from matching or exceeding its benchmark’s return.

What is the fund’s investment approach?

The fund’s objective is to seek as high a level of income exempt from federal and New Jersey state income taxes as is consistent with the preservation of capital.

To pursue its goal, the fund normally invests substantially all of its assets in municipal bonds that provide income exempt from federal and New Jersey state personal income taxes. The dollar-weighted average maturity of the fund’s portfolio ranges between three and 10 years.

We may buy and sell bonds based on credit quality, market outlook and yield potential. In selecting municipal bonds for investment, we may assess the current interest-rate environment and the municipal bond’s potential volatility in different rate environments.We focus on bonds with the potential to offer attractive current income, typically

The Fund 3

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

looking for bonds that can provide consistently attractive current yields or that are trading at competitive market prices.A portion of the fund’s assets may be allocated to “discount” bonds, which are bonds that sell at a price below their face value, or to “premium” bonds, which are bonds that sell at a price above their face value.The fund’s allocation to either discount bonds or to premium bonds will change along with our changing views of the current interest-rate and market environment.We also may look to select bonds that are most likely to obtain attractive prices when sold.

What other factors influenced the fund’s performance?

A market rally during the second half of the reporting period more than offset weakness during the first half, when investors’ concerns regarding inflation and the economy had eroded municipal bond prices. These concerns proved to be overblown as energy prices declined and U.S. housing markets softened over the summer.The Fed appeared to lend credence to a more benign economic outlook when, after more than two years of steady rate hikes, it held short-term interest rates unchanged at its meetings in August and September.

Municipal bond prices also were supported by favorable supply-and-demand factors during the reporting period. Many states and municipalities have received more tax revenue than originally projected, reducing their need to borrow. Consequently, the supply of newly issued municipal bonds fell compared to the same period one year earlier.Yet,demand remained robust from both individual and institutional investors seeking competitive levels of tax-free income.

As short-term interest rates rose in the spring, longer-term bond yields remained relatively stable,contributing to a narrowing of yield differences along the fund’s maturity spectrum. Later, longer-term bond yields fell while short-term rates remained stable, and yield differences narrowed further.The fund benefited from this trend by emphasizing holdings with maturities in the 10- to 20-year range, which is toward the long end of

its maturity spectrum. In addition, the fund received especially strong contributions to performance from non-callable securities, zero-coupon bonds and its core holdings of higher-coupon securities.

On the other hand, the fund’s strong relative performance was eroded somewhat by its focus on higher-quality securities, which prevented the fund from participating fully in gains achieved by some of the market’s lower-rated sectors. Indeed, more than 80% of the fund’s holdings were rated “single-A” or better.

What is the fund’s current strategy?

We recently increased the fund’s average duration modestly to position the fund for a slower-growth economic environment. However, we have continued to diversify the fund’s holdings across its maturity range, as we expect bonds of various maturities to benefit from declining interest rates should the economy slow and inflationary pressures wane. In addition, we have maintained the fund’s high-quality credit profile, positioning it to participate in what we expect to be one of the stronger segments of the municipal bond marketplace.

1	Total return includes reinvestment of dividends and any capital gains paid. Past performance is no
	guarantee of future results. Share price, yield and investment return fluctuate such that upon
	redemption, fund shares may be worth more or less than their original cost. Income may be subject
	to state and local taxes for non-New Jersey residents, and some income may be subject to the
	federal alternative minimum tax (AMT) for certain investors. Capital gains, if any, are fully
	taxable. Return figures provided reflect the absorption of certain fund expenses by The Dreyfus
	Corporation pursuant to an undertaking in effect that may be extended, terminated or modified at
	any time. Had these expenses not been absorbed, the fund’s return would have been lower.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:

Dreyfus New Jersey Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund (the “fund”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as a non-diversified open-end management investment company.The fund’s investment objective is to provide investors with as high a level of current income exempt from federal and New Jersey state income taxes as is consistent with the preservation of capital.The Dreyfus Corporation (the “Manager” or “Dreyfus”) serves as the fund’s investment adviser. The Manager is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mellon Financial Corporation (“Mellon Financial”). Dreyfus Service Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, is the distributor of the fund’s shares, which are sold to the public without a sales charge.

The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown.The fund does not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.

(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued each business day by an independent pricing service (the “Service”) approved by the Board of Trustees. Investments for which quoted bid prices are readily available and are representative of the bid side of the market in the judgment of the Service are valued at the mean between the quoted bid prices (as obtained by the Service from dealers in such securities) and asked prices (as calculated by the Service based upon its evaluation of the market for such securities). Other investments (which constitute a majority of the portfolio securities) are carried at fair value as determined by the Service, based on methods which include consideration of: yields or prices of municipal securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and

20

general market conditions. Options and financial futures on municipal and U.S.Treasury securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange on which such securities are primarily traded or at the last sales price on the national securities market on each business day.

(b) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gain and loss from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Interest income, adjusted for accretion of discount and amortization of premium on investments, is earned from settlement date and recognized on the accrual basis. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date.

The fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby the fund receives earnings credits from the custodian when positive cash balances are maintained, which are used to offset custody fees. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes net earnings credits as an expense offset in the Statement of Operations.

The fund follows an investment policy of investing primarily in municipal obligations of one state. Economic changes affecting the state and certain of its public bodies and municipalities may affect the ability of issuers within the state to pay interest on, or repay principal of, municipal obligations held by the fund.

(c) Dividends to shareholders: It is the policy of the fund to declare dividends daily from investment income-net. Such dividends are paid monthly. Dividends from net realized capital gain, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but the fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).To the extent that net realized capital gain can be offset by capital loss carryovers, it is the policy of the fund not to distribute such gain. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The Fund 21

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

(d) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, which can distribute tax exempt dividends, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of income and net realized capital gain sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.

On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority.Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of FIN 48 and its impact in the financial statements has not yet been determined.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006, were as follows: tax exempt income $6,925,178 and long-term capital gains $300,269.The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.

NOTE 2—Bank Line of Credit:

The fund participates with other Dreyfus-managed funds in a $350 million redemption credit facility (the “Facility”) to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes, including the financing of redemptions. In connection therewith, the fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the Facility. Interest is charged to the fund based on prevailing market rates in effect at the time of borrowings. During the period ended September 30, 2006, the fund did not borrow under the Facility.

22

NOTE 3—Management Fee and Other Transactions With Affiliates:

(a) Pursuant to a management agreement with the Manager, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .60% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets and is payable monthly.The Manager had undertaken from April 1, 2006 through September 30, 2006, to reduce the management fee paid by the fund, if the aggregated annual expenses of the fund, exclusive of taxes, brokerage fees, interest on borrowings, commitment fees and extraordinary expenses, exceed an annual rate of .80% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets.The reduction in management fee, pursuant to the undertaking, amounted to $8,830, during the period ended September 30, 2006.

(b) Under the Shareholder Services Plan, the fund reimburses the Distributor an amount not to exceed an annual rate of .25% of the fund’s average daily net assets for certain allocated expenses of providing personal services and/or maintaining shareholder accounts. The services provided may include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the fund and providing reports and other information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts. During the period ended September 30, 2006, the fund was charged $54,391 pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.

The fund compensates Dreyfus Transfer, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, under a transfer agency agreement for providing personnel and facilities to perform transfer agency services for the fund. During the period ended September 30, 2006, the fund was charged $27,599 pursuant to the transfer agency agreement.

During the period ended September 30, 2006, the fund was charged $2,274 for services performed by the Chief Compliance Officer.

The components of Due to The Dreyfus Corporation and affiliates in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consist of: management fees $88,456, chief compliance officer fees $2,274 and transfer agency per account fees $9,800.

The Fund 23

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

(c) Each Board member also serves as a Board member of other funds within the Dreyfus complex. Annual retainer fees and attendance fees are allocated to each fund based on net assets.

(d) A 1% redemption fee is charged and retained by the fund on certain shares redeemed within thirty days following the date of issuance, subject to exceptions, including redemptions made through the use of the fund’s exchange privilege.

NOTE 4—Securities Transactions:

The aggregate amount of purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term securities, during the period ended September 30, 2006, amounted to $34,736,695 and $40,870,121, respectively.

At September 30, 2006, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $6,658,840, consisting of $6,669,423 gross unrealized appreciation and $10,583 gross unrealized depreciation.

At September 30, 2006, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see the Statement of Investments).

NOTE 5—Subsequent Event:

At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the fund held on November

8, 2006, the Board approved, subject to shareholder approval, an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Agreement”) between the fund and Dreyfus Premier New Jersey Municipal Bond Fund, Inc. (the “Acquiring Fund”). The Agreement provides for the transfer of the fund’s assets to the Acquiring Fund in a tax-free exchange for shares of the Acquiring Fund and the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of the fund’s stated liabilities, the distribution of shares of the Acquiring Fund to the fund’s shareholders and the subsequent termination of the fund (the “Reorganization”). It is currently contemplated that holders of fund shares as of December 15, 2006 will be asked to approve the Agreement on behalf of the fund at a special meeting of shareholders to be held on or about March 1, 2007.The Reorganization is expected to take place on or about March 12, 2007. In anticipation of the Reorganization, effective on or about November 17, 2006, the fund will be closed to any investments for new accounts.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

At a Meeting of the fund’s Board of Trustees held on August 9, 2006, the Board considered the re-approval for an annual period of the fund’s Management Agreement, pursuant to which the Manager provides the fund with investment advisory and administrative services. The Board members, none of whom are “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the fund, were assisted in their review by independent legal counsel and met with counsel in executive session separate from representatives of the Manager.

Analysis of Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services Provided to the Fund. The Board members received a presentation from representatives of the Manager regarding services provided to the fund and other funds in the Dreyfus fund complex, and discussed the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the fund pursuant to the fund’s Management Agreement.The Manager’s representatives reviewed the fund’s distribution of accounts and the relationships that the Manager has with various intermediaries and the different needs of each. The Manager’s representatives noted the diversity of distribution of the fund as well as among the funds in the Dreyfus fund complex generally, and the Manager’s corresponding need for broad, deep, and diverse resources to be able to provide ongoing shareholder services in each distribution channel. The Board also reviewed the number of shareholder accounts in the fund, as well as the fund’s asset size.

The Board members also considered the Manager’s research and portfolio management capabilities and that the Manager also provides oversight of day-to-day fund operations, including fund accounting and administration and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements. The Board members also considered the Manager’s extensive administrative, accounting, and compliance infrastructure.

Comparative Analysis of the Fund’s Management Fee and Expense Ratio and Performance. The Board members reviewed reports prepared by Lipper, Inc., an independent provider of investment company data, which included information comparing the fund’s management fee and expense ratio with a group of comparable funds (the “Expense

The Fund 25

I N FO R M AT I O N A B O U T T H E R E V I E W A N D A P P R OVA L O F T H E F U N D ’ S M A N A G E M E N T A G R E E M E N T ( U n a u d i t e d ) ( c o n t i n u e d )

Group”) and with a broader group of funds (the “Expense Universe”) that were selected by Lipper.The Expense Group contained two other funds. Included in the fund’s reports were comparisons of contractual and actual management fee rates and total operating expenses.

The Board members also reviewed the reports prepared by Lipper that presented the fund’s performance for various periods ended June 30, 2006, and placed significant emphasis on comparisons of yield and total return performance for the fund to the same group of funds as the fund’s Expense Group (the “Performance Group”) and to a group of funds that was broader than the fund’s Expense Universe (the “Performance Universe”) that also were selected by Lipper. The Manager furnished these reports to the Board along with a description of the methodology Lipper used to select the fund’s Expense Group and Expense Universe, and Performance Group and Performance Universe.The Manager also provided a comparison of the fund’s total returns to the fund’s Lipper category average returns for the past 10 calendar years.

The Board reviewed the results of the Expense Group and Expense Universe comparisons for various periods ended June 30, 2006. The Board reviewed the range of management fees and expense ratios of the funds in the Expense Group and Expense Universe, and noted that the fund’s contractual and actual management fees were higher than those of the funds in the Expense Group and the actual management fee was higher than the Expense Universe median. The Board also noted that the fund’s total expense ratio was lower than the Expense Group and Expense Universe medians.

With respect to the fund’s performance, the Board noted that the fund achieved total returns generally ranked second or third in the Performance Group for each reported time period up to 10 years (and first for the 10-year period) and that the fund achieved total returns at or higher than the Performance Universe median for each reported time period up to 10 years. On a yield performance basis, the Board noted that the fund’s 1-year yields were at or higher than the Performance Group median for 8 of the 10 reported time periods and

26

that the fund’s the 1-year yields were variably higher and lower than the Performance Universe medians for the 4 most recent 1-year periods of the 10 reported time periods.

Representatives of the Manager reviewed with the Board members the fees paid to the Manager or its affiliates by mutual funds managed by the Manager or its affiliates that were reported in the same Lipper category as the fund (the “Similar Funds”), and explained the nature of the Similar Funds and the differences, from the Manager’s perspective, in providing services to the Similar Funds as compared to the fund. The Manager’s representatives also reviewed the costs associated with distribution through intermediaries.The Board discussed the relationship of the management fees paid in light of the Manager’s performance, and the services provided.The Board members considered the relevance of the fee information provided for the Similar Funds to evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of the fund’s management fee.The Manager’s representatives noted that there were no similarly managed separate accounts or wrap fee accounts managed by the Manager or its affiliates with similar investment objectives, policies, and strategies as the fund.

Analysis of Profitability and Economies of Scale. The Manager’s representatives reviewed the dollar amount of expenses allocated and profit received by the Manager for the fund and the method used to determine such expenses and profit.The Board previously had been provided with information prepared by an independent consulting firm regarding the Manager’s approach to allocating costs to, and determining the profitability of, individual funds and the entire Dreyfus mutual fund com-plex.The Board members also had been informed that the methodology had also been reviewed by an independent registered public accounting firm which, like the consultant, found the methodology to be reasonable.The consulting firm also analyzed where any economies of scale might emerge in connection with the management of a fund. The Board members evaluated the profitability analysis in light of the relevant circumstances for the fund, including any decline in fund assets from the prior year, and the extent to which economies of scale would

The Fund 27

I N FO R M AT I O N A B O U T T H E R E V I E W A N D A P P R OVA L O F T H E F U N D ’ S M A N A G E M E N T A G R E E M E N T ( U n a u d i t e d ) ( c o n t i n u e d )

be realized if the fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of fund shareholders. The Board members also considered potential benefits to the Manager from acting as investment adviser to the fund and noted that there were no soft dollar arrangements in effect with respect to trading the fund’s portfolio.

It was noted that the Board members should consider the Manager’s profitability with respect to the fund as part of their evaluation of whether the fees under the Management Agreement bear a reasonable relationship to the mix of services provided by the Manager, including the nature, extent, and quality of such services and that a discussion of economies of scale is predicated on increasing assets and that, if a fund’s assets had been decreasing, the possibility that the Manager may have realized any economies of scale would be less. It was noted that the profitability percentage for managing the fund was within ranges determined by appropriate court cases to be reasonable given the services rendered and the fund’s overall performance and generally superior service levels provided.

At the conclusion of these discussions, each Board member expressed the opinion that he or she had been furnished with sufficient information to make an informed business decision with respect to continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement. Based on their discussions and considerations as described above, the fund’s Board made the following conclusions and determinations.

• The Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Manager to the fund are adequate and appropriate.
• The Board generally was satisfied with the fund’s performance.
• The Board concluded that the fee paid to the Manager by the fund was reasonable in light of the services provided, comparative perfor- mance and expense and management fee information, costs of the services provided and profits to be realized and benefits derived or to be derived by the Manager from its relationship with the fund.

28

• The Board determined that the economies of scale which may accrue to Dreyfus and its affiliates in connection with the manage- ment of the fund had been adequately considered by Dreyfus in connection with the management fee rate charged to the fund, and that, to the extent in the future it were to be determined that mate- rial economies of scale had not been shared with a fund, the Board would seek to have those economies of scale shared with the fund.

The Board members considered these conclusions and determinations, along with the information received on a routine and regular basis throughout the year, and, without any one factor being dispositive, the Board determined that re-approval of the fund’s Management Agreement was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.
