Little Neck Parkway

Crossing Long Island Rail Road

Little Neck Parkway (formerly Little Neck Road) is the easternmost north/south route in the northern part of the New York City borough of Queens. The part north of Northern Boulevard (NY 25A) is a local street. Between there and Hillside Avenue, Little Neck Parkway is a two- to four-lane road, though it is a divided road south of Grand Central Parkway. South of Hillside Avenue, it is a six-lane divided road. Its southern terminus is at Jericho Turnpike (NY 25) at the Queens-Nassau border.

Little Neck Parkway is one of the few at-grade railroad crossings of the Long Island Rail Road in New York City, and the only at-grade crossing of the Port Washington Branch of the LIRR.

The Q36 bus serves Little Neck Parkway from Jamaica Avenue to the Little Neck Long Island Rail Road station on weekdays.[1] Express routes include the QM3 bus between the Long Island Expressway and Northern Boulevard,[2] and QM5 and QM8 buses between 260th Street and the Long Island Expressway.[3][4]
