The [[LaSalle Expressway]] is an east–west highway which terminates near the eastern edge of Niagara Falls and begins in the nearby town of [[Wheatfield, New York]]. The [[Niagara Scenic Parkway]] is a north–south parkway that formerly ran through the city along the northern edge of the Niagara River. It remains in sections and terminates in [[Youngstown, New York]]. [[File:Whirlpool bridge.jpg|thumb|Whirlpool Rapids bridge, 1983]] [[Interstate 190 (New York)|Interstate 190]], also referred to as the Niagara Expressway, is a north–south highway and a spur of [[Interstate 90 in New York|Interstate 90]] which borders the eastern end of the city.

Walnut Avenue carries U.S. Route 62 west to its northern terminus at NY 104, and Ferry Avenue carries U.S. Route 62 east from downtown Niagara Falls. [[U.S. Route 62 Business (Niagara Falls, New York)|U.S. Route 62 Business]], locally known as Pine Avenue, is an east–west route which parallels U.S. Route 62 to the south.
