Interstate 695 (I-695), also known as part of the Throgs Neck Expressway, is an auxiliary Interstate Highway in the New York City borough of the Bronx. It serves as a connector between I-95 (Bruckner Expressway) and I-295 (Cross Bronx Expressway/Throgs Neck Expressway) near the Throgs Neck Bridge, which connects the Bronx with Queens and Long Island.

I-695 begins at exit 10 on I-295 in the Throggs Neck section of the Bronx. Southeast of the intersection, the Throgs Neck Expressway follows I-295 to the Throgs Neck Bridge, while to the northwest, I-295 becomes the Cross Bronx Expressway. From I-295, I-695 carries the Throgs Neck Expressway to the northwest, passing through the western fringe of Weir Creek Park before descending into a cut and proceeding into Throggs Neck. Here, it connects to Randall Avenue (southbound) and Lafayette Avenue (northbound) as it makes its way northward. I-695 continues to the northern edge of the neighborhood, where it merges into the Bruckner Expressway (I-95) at its exit 7A.^[3]

The Throgs Neck Expressway was completed in 1961 at a cost of $16 million (equivalent to $125 million in 2023^[4]),^[5] connecting the Throgs Neck Bridge to the Bruckner Expressway.^[6] For years, the highway was considered (and signed as) a spur of I-78,^[5] which initially followed all of modern I-295 from the Bruckner Interchange to Hillside Avenue (now New York State Route 25).^[7] When this section of I-78 was renumbered to I-295 on January 1, 1970,^[8] the Throgs Neck Expressway became a spur of that route.^[5] In 1986, the New York State Department of Transportation resigned the Throgs Neck Expressway as I-695 to avoid driver confusion with the Cross Bronx Expressway Extension, also signed as I-295. The Federal Highway Administration formally recognized I-695 on April 7, 2008,^[2] and the number was approved by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials on May 6, 2008.^[9]

The entire route is in the Throggs Neck neighborhood of the New York City borough of The Bronx. All exits are unnumbered.
