The Playland Parkway begins at an interchange with I-95 in Rye, heading southeast as a four-lane divided highway. The road passes over Metro-North Railroad's New Haven Line and heads into wooded areas with nearby development, coming to an interchange with Old Post Road that provides access to US 1. Past this interchange, the Playland Parkway becomes a four-lane undivided road and passes under US 1. The road continues through wore woodland near residential neighborhoods, coming to an at-grade intersection with Milton Road. The Playland Parkway curves more to the east and intersects Midland Avenue/Ridgeland Terrace and Forest Avenue before ending at the entrance to the Playland amusement park on Long Island Sound, at which point the road gains a wide median.[1]
