History
The original plan of the Parkway was to extend to Passaic Avenue in West Caldwell on the northern end and to Route 24 in Chatham on the southern end. There is a complete cloverleaf interchange at Route 24, which would have been Interchange 5 on 24 (and there were once blank signs erected on 24 West). The bridges over Route 24, which would have been part of Eisenhower Parkway, are currently open to all-terrain vehicles. Had it been extended to the south, it was going to be called Triborough Road (at least in Chatham and Florham Park). Signage on the interchange bridge bears the name "Triborough Road".
