(Redirected from I-81 (NY))
'Interstate 81' is a north-south 824 mile long highway stretching from Dandridge, Tennessee to Thousand Islands Bridge at US/ Canada border near Fishers Landing, New York. I-81 runs for about 183 miles in New York from the Pennsylvania border near Binghamton to the northern terminus at US/ Canada border.

Interstate 81 enters New York at the Pennsylvania state line about 11 miles south east of Binghamton. I-81 merges with NY 17 for 5 miles. The current segment of NY 17 is set to become I-86. About 1 mile north of Binghamton at exit 5, I-81 meets the western terminus of I-88. US 11 has been paralleling I-81 from Virginia and US 11 will parallel I-81 in most of New York. At mile marker 73 and exit 15, I-81 meets with the longest road in the United States: US 20 in La Fayette . At the southern tip of Syracuse, at mile marker 81, and exit 16A, I-81 meets with one of its spurs : I-481. In downtown Syracuse, I-81 meets I-690 at an incomplete interchange. Just north of Syracuse, At exit 25A, I-81 meets I-90/ the New York State Thruway. In North Syracuse at mile marker 93, I-81 meets with I-481 and NY 481 at exit 29. From exit 36 to exit 48, I-81 begins to parallel Lake Ontario. I-81 ends at Thousand Islands Bridge (toll northbound only) at the U.S./ Canadian border 6 miles north of Fishers Landing. I-81 becomes Hwy 137 which connects with Hwy 401.
Around I-81's northern terminus at the Canadian border, two toll bridge spans over the St. Lawrence River connect it via a short stub to Ontario Highway 137 to Highway 401 in Ontario. The main bridge span on the United States side is one of the few remaining 2-lane Interstate stretches left on the system. The border itself is marked by a 90-foot bridge across the International Rift between Wellesley Island, New York and Hill Island, Ontario.
