The 15-mile section of the New England Thruway (I-95) carries traffic from New York City to the Connecticut border. Over the past decades, 14 miles of the highway in the Bronx, Pelham, New Rochelle, Mamaroneck, Harrison and Rye have been reconstructed. This project will complete the reconstruction of the “last mile,” improve motorists’ experience and increase the safety along this section of I-95. The project spans approximately one mile and contains a six-ramp interchange system with the Cross Westchester Expressway (I-287) and Midland Avenue in the City of Rye and Village of Port Chester in Westchester County. It also includes replacement of the Cross Westchester Expressway ramp bridge and the Grace Church Street bridge over the Thruway and resurfacing of the Byram River Bridge.

Major components of the project include:

Reconstruction of the New England Thruway (I-95) mainline and ramp upgrades

Replacement of Grace Church Street Bridge

Replacement and realignment of the I-287 eastbound to I-95 northbound ramp bridge

Resurfacing of the Byram River Bridge

Realignment of ramp from Midland Avenue to connect directly to I-95 northbound

Widening of I-95 southbound to provide a two-lane exit ramp to I-287 westbound

Improvements to the I-95 northbound/Midland Avenue interchange
