The Central Westchester Parkway is a 1.01-mile (1.63 km), four-lane parkway in Westchester County, New York, in the United States. It runs from exit 7 of the Cross Westchester Expressway (Interstate 287 or I-287) to the Taconic State Parkway via New York State Route 22 (NY 22). The road has two intermediate exits and is maintained by Westchester County as County Route 150. Until 2011, the exit off I-287 signed it only as "To Taconic Parkway, North White Plains." However, the sign now calls the parkway by its little-known name.

[edit] Route description
The Central Westchester Parkway begins at an interchange with access to and from the eastbound direction of I-287 in White Plains. The road heads north as a four-lane divided highway through wooded surroundings near homes, with a right-in/right-out ramp providing access to Beech Street West, which provides access to Orchard Street, in the northbound direction and Clinton Street in the southbound direction. A short distance later, the parkway comes to a southbound exit and entrance with Orchard Street, which provides access to and from the westbound direction of I-287. Following this, the road passes between residential neighborhoods to the west and fields to the east. The Central Westchester Parkway heads into North Castle and comes to its northern terminus at an intersection with NY 22 in a commercial area, which continues north to connect to the Taconic State Parkway.[4][5]
