Interstate 295 (abbreviated I-295) is a connector route within New York City. Measuring 9.10 miles (14.6km) 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 (NY-25) in the Queens neighborhood of Queens Village, however the original plan was to extend it further south to JFK Airport. The 0.8 mile JFK Expressway was intended to be part of the Clearview, but was only constructed as far north as Belt Parkway.

[edit] Route description

Legally, the route of part of I-295 is defined as part of Interstate Route Connection 513 in New York Highway Law § 340-a.^[2]
