List of Interstate Highways in New York

The list of Interstate Highways in New York encompasses 29 currently in-use Interstate Highways—eight primary Interstates and 21 auxiliary Interstates—which exist entirely or partially in the U.S. State of New York. In New York, Interstate Highways are maintained by the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT). Unlike in some other states, Interstates in New York are not referenced by NYSDOT with their number; U.S. and Interstate highways are classified as state routes in New York. However, a letter ("U" or "I", respectively) is suffixed to the number of the route. As a result, there is apparent duplication between U.S. routes, Interstates and state routes. Interstate Highways travel for a combined total of convert|1674|mi|km|abbr=on|lk=on in the state, which accounts for about 19 percent of vehicle travel in New York.
