Interstate 95 in New Jersey
Interstate 95 (I-95) is a major Interstate Highway that runs along the East Coast of the United States from Miami, Florida, north to the Canada–United States border at Houlton, Maine. In New Jersey, it runs along much of the mainline of the New Jersey Turnpike, as well as the Pearl Harbor Memorial Turnpike Extension, and the New Jersey Turnpike's I-95 Extension to the George Washington Bridge for a total of 77.96 miles (125.46 km). Located in the northeastern part of the state near New York City, the 11.03-mile (17.75 km) Western Spur of the New Jersey Turnpike, considered to be Route 95W by the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT), is also part of I-95.

The Dwight D. Eisenhower National System of Interstate and Defense Highways, commonly known as the Interstate Highway System, or the Eisenhower Interstate System, is a network of controlled-access highways that forms part of the National Highway System in the United States.

The fervor of urban renewal led to the routing of Interstate 81 through the middle of Syracuse's 15th Ward in the 1960s. The viaduct is now slated for demolition.
