Queens is traversed by three trunk east–west highways. The [[Long Island Expressway]] ([[Interstate 495 (New York)|Interstate 495]]) runs from the [[Queens Midtown Tunnel]] on the west through the borough to Nassau County on the east. The [[Grand Central Parkway]], whose western terminus is the [[Triborough Bridge]], extends east to the Queens/Nassau border, where the roadway continues as the [[Northern State Parkway]]. The [[Belt Parkway]] begins at the [[Gowanus Expressway]] in Brooklyn, and extends east into Queens, past [[Aqueduct Racetrack]] and JFK Airport. On its eastern end at the Queens/Nassau border, it splits into the [[Southern State Parkway]] which continues east, and the [[Cross Island Parkway]] which turns north.<ref name="Google-Maps-Queens" />

There are also several major north–south highways in Queens, including the [[Brooklyn-Queens Expressway]] ([[Interstate 278]]), the [[Van Wyck Expressway]] ([[Interstate 678]]), the [[Clearview Expressway]] ([[Interstate 295 (New York)|Interstate 295]]), and the Cross Island Parkway.<ref name="Google-Maps-Queens" />

Queens has six state highways that run west–east largely on surface roads. From north to south, they are [[New York State Route 25A]] (Northern Boulevard), [[New York State Route 25B]] (Hillside Avenue), [[New York State Route 25]] ([[Queens Boulevard]], Hillside Avenue, and Braddock Avenue), [[New York State Route 24]] (Hempstead Avenue), and [[New York State Route 27]] ([[Conduit Avenue]]). The only state highway that primarily uses an expressway is [[New York State Route 878]], which uses the Nassau Expressway in southern Queens.<ref name="Google-Maps-Queens" />
