Merrick Road

Merrick Road is an east–west urban arterial in Queens, Nassau, and Suffolk counties in New York, United States.

[2] Merrick Road travels along an old right-of-way that was one of the original paths across southern Long Island, stretching from Queens to Montauk Point.

Two blocks to the south of Hillside Avenue, Merrick Boulevard passes by the Central Branch of the Queens Library and the 165th Street Bus Terminal.

Merrick Road from that point east continues through Massapequa over the Nassau/Suffolk border into Amityville, Suffolk County, where it becomes Montauk Highway at the Amityville/Copiague village/hamlet line.

A truck needing to make a delivery to the barrier beaches along Ocean Parkway may enter the Meadowbrook southbound at this road and at no point farther north.
