Route Description
The Mosholu Parkway begins at Interchange 8E of the Bronx River Parkway. It heads northward as an arterial boulevard through the northern parts of the Bronx. The highway crosses through Bedford Park, passing Bainbridge Avenue. It intersects with the Grand Concourse farther ahead, with Jerome Avenue, Sedgwick Avenue and West Gun Hill Road soon after. In Van Cortlandt Park, the Mosholu Parkway becomes a limited-access freeway, with exits at the Major Deegan Expressway (Interstate 87 or I-87) and its terminus at the Henry Hudson Parkway just south of the Westchester County line where it turns into the Saw Mill River Parkway.
A bikeway runs along the northeast side of the parkway from Bronx Park to Van Cortlandt Park, connecting through the park to another bikeway on the former New York and Putnam Railroad line.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“It is possible—indeed possible even according to the old conception of logic—to give in advance a description of all ‘true’ logical propositions. Hence there can never be surprises in logic.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
