The first highway in New York, known as the New York State Thruway, was officially opened on June 27, 1954. This major toll highway was designed to facilitate long-distance travel and improve transportation across the state. The Thruway was constructed in phases, with its initial segment running from Yonkers to Buffalo. It became a crucial part of New York's transportation infrastructure, significantly enhancing connectivity.
