545:, which was removed in the early 1950s. The reconstruction of the Cross County Parkway was begun in 1964; however, the project was not completed until 1984. The parkway is now a multi-lane highway with express and local lanes. In conjunction with the renovation of the Cross County Shopping Center, Exit 5 westbound and Exit 5 eastbound of the Cross County Parkway underwent major reconstruction during 2010 and 2011. The two exit ramps were widened and improved with new traffic lights and signage. In addition, traffic can now proceed from the eastbound parkway directly into the shopping center. 419: 26: 989: 928: 190: 827: 153: 380: 815: 148: 415:, Exits 4S (for I-87 south) and 4N (for I-87 north/NY-100 north). All exits/entrances are accessed here by the local lanes, except for the eastbound exit and westbound entrance at Exit 4N, which are via the express lanes. The eastbound entrance at Exit 4N connects to both the express and local lanes. Shortly after, the Cross County enters Exit 5, which connects to Kimball Avenue and Midland Avenue and is only accessed by the local lanes. There is no eastbound entrance. 682: 625: 95: 1008: 983: 922: 821: 676: 619: 1074: 1002: 747: 124: 474:, the parkway enters Exit 10, a small interchange with New Rochelle Road with only an eastbound exit and westbound entrance. This is because the eastbound entrance and westbound exit are via the Hutch. After Exit 10, the Cross County continues north as a five-lane parkway (three lanes westbound, two lanes eastbound), before crossing under a flyover ramp for the Hutchinson River Parkway southbound and merging into the parkway northbound. 488: 1062: 996: 129: 890: 168: 742: 119: 399:. Exits 1 and 2 are part of this interchange, with Exit 1 being a westbound only exit to Rumsey Road, and Exit 2 being a westbound exit/eastbound entrance from the Saw Mill northbound. The entrance/exit at the Saw Mill southbound has no number. After crossing an abandoned railroad grade, the parkway enters Exit 3, a small interchange with 540:
The Cross County Parkway was originally built as an east–west link between the Saw Mill, Bronx River, and Hutchinson River Parkways. Construction began in 1929, and the highway was initially a 40-foot (12 m)-wide undivided roadway that could accommodate four lanes of automobile traffic

Immediately after Exit 9, the Cross County Parkway turns ninety degrees to the north, going back to a six-lane parkway after briefly expanding to host Exit 9. The Cross County parallels a park in the Chester Heights section of

The parkway is a critical east–west connection throughout Westchester, having full interchanges with every major north–south highway in southern Westchester with the exception of 403:. The six-lane roadway crosses through southeast Yonkers, making a gradual bend from the northeast to the southeast before spitting into express and local lanes. The parkway then enters an interchange with the 449:
where it meets Exit 7, a northbound entrance and exit via the local lanes at Broad Street, which connects to Gramatan Avenue. After Exit 7, the parkway winds southeast into the Chester Heights section of
1267: 1101: 458:(North Columbus Avenue). Just east of Exit 8, the Cross County has an eastbound exit and westbound entrance at Exit 9, which connects the parkway to/from the southbound lanes of the 422:
Eastbound entrance to the Cross County at Exit 4N in Yonkers. Cars can bear left for the express lanes for Exits 8 and up, or bear right for the local lanes for Exits 5, 6, and 7.
