	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Belt Parkway
		The Belt Parkway, or Belt System or Circumferential Parkway is a series of New York City limited-access highways that form a complete circle around the Boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens.
		The Belt Parkway was proposed by builder and highway advocate Robert Moses in 1930 to provide modern highway access to Manhattan and to connect to, and use similar design principles to, parkways already constructed on Long Island and Westchester County, New York.
		The portion north/east of its junction with the Belt Parkway is a reconstruction of the former Gowanus Parkway, a cars-only highway, considered part of the Belt Parkway.

	Parkway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the 1920s, the parkway system around New York City grew extensively under the direction of master builder Robert Moses, who saw parkways as a active means to promote automobile use and to transfer population from crowded urban areas onto undeveloped areas on Long Island.
		In the 1930s, the concept of the parkway was extended to the federal government, which constructed several national parkways designed for recreational driving and to commemorate historic routes.
		A recurring bit of humor about the name parkway has had some fun poked at it, as it is ironic that one would park on a driveway, and instead drive on a parkway.

		The Southern Parkway, distinct from the Southern State Parkway in Nassau and Suffolk counties, is located entirely within the median of Conduit Boulevard between Cross Bay Boulevard and Brookville Boulevard.
		The Cross Island Parkway continues north from the interchange with the Southern State Parkway near the border of Nassau County, then west to the Bronx-Whitestone Bridge, where it terminates at the Whitestone Expressway.
		Originally, the highways were the Gowanus Parkway from the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel to the Shore Parkway; the entirety of the Shore, Southern, Laurelton, and Cross Island Parkways; the Whitestone Parkway from the Cross Island to the Grand Central Parkway; and the Grand Central from the Whitestone to the Triborough Bridge.

	New York @ NorthEastRoads.com - Belt Parkway
		Announced in March 1971 by then Governor Nelson Rockefeller, upgrading of the parkway to a ten-lane freeway with four truck/bus lanes was touted for the highway between the Verrazano Narrows Bridge (Interstate 278) and Nassau Expressway (New York 878).
		The interchange between Belt Parkway and Interstate 678 (Van Wyck Expressway) entails the parallel New York 27 (Conduit Avenue) for some of the movements between the two limited-access highways.
		Departing the parkway next is Exit 17N onto New York 27 (Conduit Avenue) west for its intersection with Cohancy Street and ramp to Cross Bay Boulevard northbound.

	Belt Parkway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Belt Parkway was proposed by builder and highway advocate Robert Moses in 1930 to provide modern highway access to Manhattan and to connect to, and use similar design principles to, parkways already constructed on Long Island and Westchester County, New York.
		Though some signage bears the name "Belt Parkway," the original plan never called for a highway of that name, rather a system of different named parkways called the "Belt System." The Belt System is made up of a series of interconnecting highways, none of which are actually the single Belt Parkway.
		At Exit 25A (Southern State Parkway), the Belt Parkway becomes the Cross Island Parkway (which is designated north-south), where the numbering scheme continues until that parkway's northern terminus.

	Belt Parkway
		It is proposed to acquire the rights-of-way for the extension of Guilder Avenue by means of a new parkway parallel to, and north of Emmons Avenue to the Marine Parkway extension, for which land is already in the possession of the City.
		During construction of the parkway in the late 1930's, highway design advances that had been tested on the Long Island parkways - most notably the dark-colored main roadways and light-colored entrance and exit ramps - were applied on the Belt Parkway.
		From the time of its opening in 1941 until 1972, the Belt Parkway was signed as "NY 27A." In fact, as late as the mid-1980's, there was an NY 27A sign posted on one of the Belt's remaining wooden lightposts.

		The system was not completed as a parkway, and some portions of the original system were converted to expressways, which allows commercial traffic to use them, even interstate heavytrucking.

	Belt Parkway
		In its day, the Belt Parkway was exemplary for its combination of rustic and seaside design aesthetics, while sticking (mostly) true to traditional parkway design guidelines.
		A postwar widening project brought two additional lanes to the parkway, but did little to fix the cramped entrance and exit ramps.
		The parkway once was a design jewel, but new bridges constructed over the parkway and other changes during the past 40 years have detracted from the beauty.

	Welcome to HAKS Engineers and Land Surveyors, P.C.
		The Belt Parkway over Ocean Parkway Project involved removing the existing and outdated “Cloverleaf” ramps at Ocean Parkway and replacing them with a “Modified Tight Diamond” interchange consisting of eight tangential ramps and dedicated turn lanes.
		Additionally, the Belt Parkway Bridge over Ocean Parkway was removed and replaced with a wider and longer structure that provides additional lanes and malls for Ocean Parkway.
		Ocean Parkway is one of the major interchanges providing access to the Coney Island, Brighton Beach, and Sheepshead Bay areas in south Brooklyn and is extremely sensitive to traffic interruptions and modifications due to its proximity to key summer recreation locations.
