These signs used to mark the intersection with Port Washington Boulevard (NY 101). They have been replaced with new signs that give the street name as well as the route name and that also instruct motorists to turn right for Searingtown Road (CR 101) and the Long Island Expressway (I-495).

These photos show the Roslyn Viaduct during the first phase of its reconstruction, which lasted from 2006 through 2009. During this phase, half of the original viaduct was demolished to make room for the half of the new viaduct that was constructed during this time. The remaining half was divided into three lanes (in the space where there were previously only two). The middle lane was reversible to accommodate traffic flow. Temporary traffic lights overhead indicated which lane or lanes to use for each direction.

These photos show the Roslyn Viaduct during the second phase of its reconstruction, which lasted from 2009 through 2010. During this phase, traffic was routed across the half of the new viaduct that was completed during first phase, while the remaining half of the original viaduct was torn down and the second half of the new viaduct was built in its place. The temporary traffic lights were moved to the new viaduct for this phase.

These photos show the Roslyn Viaduct as its reconstruction was nearing completion. Both halves of the viaduct were open and the temporary traffic lights had been removed, but the lanes were still very narrow and there was no shoulder.
