Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Use American English Шаблон:Infobox road Interstate 695 (I-695) is an auxiliary Interstate Highway in the New York City borough of the Bronx. It serves as a connector between I-95 (Bruckner Expressway) and I-295 (Cross Bronx Expressway) near the Throgs Neck Bridge, which connects the Bronx with Queens and Long Island. I-695 is named the Throgs Neck Expressway.
Route description
I-695 begins at exit 10 on the Cross Bronx Expressway Extension (I-295) in the Throggs Neck section of the Bronx. The highway heads to the northwest, passing through the western fringe of Weir Creek Park before descending into a cut and proceeding into Throggs Neck. Here, it connects to Randall Avenue (southbound) and Lafayette Avenue (northbound) as it makes its way northward. I-695 continues to the northern edge of the neighborhood, where it merges into the Bruckner Expressway (I-95) at its exit 7A.[1]
History
The Throgs Neck Expressway was completed in 1961 at a cost of $16 million (equivalent to $Шаблон:Formatprice in Шаблон:Inflation/yearШаблон:Inflation/fn),[2] connecting the Throgs Neck Bridge to the Bruckner Expressway.[3] For years, the highway was considered (and signed as) a spur of I-78,[2] which initially followed all of modern I-295 from the Bruckner Interchange to Hillside Avenue (now New York State Route 25).[4] When this section of I-78 was renumbered to I-295 on January 1, 1970,[5] the Throgs Neck Expressway became a spur of that route.[2] In 1986, the New York State Department of Transportation resigned the Throgs Neck Expressway as I-695 to avoid driver confusion with the Cross Bronx Expressway Extension, also signed as I-295. The Federal Highway Administration formally recognized I-695 on April 7, 2008,[6] and the number was approved by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials on May 6, 2008.[7]
