 Port River Expressway - Transport SA
The Port River Expressway is an important strategic transport route for South Australia, which will contribute to South Australia's economic development by providing an expressway and new road and rail bridge connections across the Port River, linking our export enterprises and industrial areas with key transport routes and facilities.
The Port River Expressway links South Australia's major port and rail terminals at the Port of Adelaide directly with the National Highway to Perth and Darwin via Port Wakefield Road, the National Highway to Sydney and Melbourne and the Interstate Mainline rail network.

 New England Thruway (I-95)
The Bruckner Expressway, which connects the New England Thruway with the East River crossings, was completed in 1961.
The route of the New England Thruway was to be on the northerly side of the New York and New Haven Railroad (now the Amtrak-Metro North New Haven rail line), along land acquired by Westchester County in the late 1920's for the never-built Pelham-Port Chester Parkway.
Some of the highlights of the project were the conversion of the New Rochelle toll plaza from two-way tolls to northbound-only tolls during the late 1980's, and the replacement of the Hutchinson River drawbridge with a new high-level bridge in 1996.

 Lower Manhattan Information - History - Reflections
Later, the passage of the Interstate Highway Act in 1956 began to push business and industries out toward the expressway interchanges, even as new container ship technology moved the bulk of the region's harbor traffic away from the Manhattan and Brooklyn docks and toward Port Newark in New Jersey.
Second, lower Manhattan had important geographic advantages from 1625 until 1955 as the region's main harbor and for many decades the greatest port in the world.
Soon thereafter, the Port Authority announced plans for a giant World Trade Center slightly northwest of the New York Stock Exchange.

 Bridges and Tunnels in New York and New Jersey in the United States
New Jersey Department of Transportation: Traveling by Bicycle in New Jersey, Crossing the Hudson River to New York City : "No walkway; special arrangements for access by groups can be made in advance by calling 718-390-2524." (Verify this information with the Port Authority.) The Goethals Bridge with its closed sidewalk is 13 km away.
Even if no other buses are available to carry bicycles, the Port Authority should seek shuttle buses and the Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority should have the New York City Bus to shuttle bicycles across the bridges.
Many bridges have pathways, and many expressways have service roads permitting these travelers.

 Planners Network: Publications
In New York City, the Port Authority’s plan to build a second Goethals Bridge and the State Department of Transportation’s goal to widen the Staten Island Expressway are the worst examples in the city of encouraging sprawl.
Potential sites that could be developed or redeveloped include Phelps Dodge in Queens, the Harlem River Railyard in the Bronx, Port Ivory in Staten Island and Pilgrim State on Long Island.
That connection to Staten Island would decrease truck traffic over the Goethals Bridge — a bridge to New Jersey that the Port Authority erroneously wants to twin in order to handle more truck traffic.

 Fall River Expressway (MA 24)
The north-south highway was to be not only part of a comprehensive statewide expressway plan, but also part of an effort to revitalize the old port city of Fall River.
When it was constructed in the 1950's, the Fall River Expressway met contemporary design standards with its 12-foot-wide lanes, 24-foot-wide grassed median (on which there is a continuous guardrail) and 14½-foot bridge clearances.
Work began on the Fall River Expressway in 1950, and two years later, the first section of expressway from Assonet to Raynham opened to traffic.

 PUBLIC TO BE CONSULTED ON NORTHERN GATEWAY ROAD OPTIONS
"The proposed freeway corridor is likely to be in the general vicinity of Heaslip Road and will link to the Port River Expressway along Port Wakefield Road," the Federal Minister for Local Government, Territories and Roads, Senator Ian Campbell, said today.
"The road transport task along Main North Road to Adelaide and the port is increasing, due in part to further development of the Riverland and Barossa Valley wine and horticulture industries and consolidation of manufacturing industry in Adelaide’s northern and western suburbs," he said.
The study will include an extensive round of public consultation early next year to help establish the route and design of the proposal to extend the Sturt Highway from Evanston to Port Wakefield Road at Waterloo Corner.

 Windsor,_Nova_Scotia
Today, the Avon River on the upstream side of the causeway which is obstructed from freely flowing into the Bay of Fundy is called 'Lake Pesaquid'.
In 1970, the construction of a flood-control causeway carrying Nova Scotia Highway 101 and the Dominion Atlantic Railway across the Avon River closed Windsor off from shipping and has affected navigation in the Avon River downstream from the causeway due to excessive siltation.
Highway 101 is scheduled to be upgraded to a 4-lane expressway in the future and there have been discussions about replacing the causeway with railroad and highway bridges to improve water flow.

 British Columbia provincial highway 19 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The entire stretch of Highway 19 between Campbell River and the city of Parksville is a divided four-lane freeway or expressway (alternates), with a nominal speed limit of 110 km/h, and is referred to as the "Inland Island Highway".
The highway then winds its way past Nimpkish Lake, then through a 163 km long stretch of dense forest terrain, through the community of Woss and a junction with Sayward, finally entering the city of Campbell River at a junction with highways 28 and 19A, just past the river that the city is named for.
Highway 19 then veers southwest onto a new 20 km long four-lane expressway known as the "Nanaimo Parkway", which has five at-grade intersections along its length.
