Description
Rockaway Parkway is divided into two segments by the Bay Ridge Branch of the LIRR.
Its northern segment begins at East New York Avenue in Brownsville. It then intersects Linden Boulevard and ends past Ditmas Avenue. The southern segment begins north of Avenue D in Canarsie, then intersects Flatlands Avenue, crosses under the Belt Parkway, and ends at Canarsie Pier. Northbound and southbound traffic is separated by a median between Linden Boulevard and Rockaway Avenue; south of Seaview Avenue, Rockaway Parkway again becomes separated by a median to its southern terminus at Canarsie Pier.
