Interstate 295 (New York)
Interstate 295
(
I-295
) is a connector route within
New York City
. Measuring 9.10 miles (14.6 km) in length, I-295 travels from the
Bruckner Interchange
, a junction with
I-95
/
I-278
/
I-678
in
The Bronx
, across the toll
Throgs Neck Bridge
to the
Grand Central Parkway
in
Queens
. Along the route, 295 meets with
I-695
(Throgs Neck Expressway), the
Cross Island Parkway
, and
I-495
(the
Long Island Expressway
). In Queens, I-295 is also known as the
Clearview Expressway
. The highway's southern terminus is a traffic signal at Hillside Avenue (New York State Route 25 or NY 25) in the
Queens
neighborhood of
Queens Village
. However, the original plan was to extend it further south to
JFK Airport
. The
JFK Expressway
was intended to be part of the Clearview, but was only constructed as far north as the
Belt Parkway
.
