Governor Andrew Cuomo announced the completion of two new exit ramps at the Kew Gardens Interchange that will enhance safety and reduce congestion at the infamous bottleneck.
The new ramps were constructed as part of the state Department of Transportation’s ongoing $365 million project to enhance safety at the confluence of the Grand Central Parkway, the Van Wyck Expressway, the Jackie Robinson Parkway and Utopia Turnpike.
“We are not only rebuilding our infrastructure across New York, but building it back better and creating a 21st-century transportation network that will allow our economy to flourish,” Cuomo said. “These new ramps, along with other improvements we are making as part of the Kew Gardens Interchange project, will enhance safety and ease travel through one of the most complex and heavily traveled corridors in New York City, keeping people and goods on the move for many years to come.”
