Narrowest roads that are marked with two or more lanes

[index]

For my submission...Here is this road in Mexico.

GSV along it and you'll see some vehicles that really struggle to fit in.

The Aurora Bridge in Seattle crams 6 lanes into 57 feet of deck space, making for some very narrow lanes. Buses and trucks have to straddle the outer two, and there's no room for a proper barrier (leading to several cross-over crashes).

Any Mass Pike exit ramp.

Since the OP started off with a Mexican road, here is one I regularly drive.

[Rothman]

Any Mass Pike exit ramp.

No.  If anything, the ramp from I-90 EB to I-91/US 5 is overly wide, just as one example.

Nothing narrow about the ramps at Exit 2...at MA 32...

Maybe within I-95, but definitely not enough to say they're all narrow.

The Fresh Pond Pkwy stretch of US 3/MA 2 in Cambridge MA between Huron Ave and Cambridge St.

MD 185/Connecticut Ave just outside of DC.

[CoreySamson]

This old section of Route 66 near Erick, OK.

This old section of Route 66 near Erick, OK.

I drove that in 2019.  Good thing there's almost no traffic.

The Grand Island bridges on I-190 between Buffalo and Niagara Falls have the least margin for error of any multi-lane bridge I've ever been on. A true nail-biter for first time drivers!

The narrowest significant road that comes to mind off the top of my head is the old, now-demolished, Goethals Bridge, as well as the Outerbridge Crossing. Off the top of my head, I'm not sure whether I've ever driven over the Outerbridge myself (as opposed to riding over it as a passenger, which I have done umpteen times), but I certainly drove over the old Goethals Bridge. The 10-foot-wide lanes made for a very unpleasant drive if there were large trucks around.

Alewife Brook Parkway -- MA 16's another good one.

[DJ Particle]

MA 6A/28 in Orleans.  US-6 in Eastham used to be just as narrow until a 1982 widening project.

[Max Rockatansky]

The Nacimiento Ferguson Road near CA 1 has a really narrow two lane for some reason.  I think it is meant to be a passing zone on the first climb/final descent from/to the coast:

[I-55]

Most MS-7xx routes. Also the access road form US-60 to Mud River Baptist Church in Barboursville, WV, which has 9' lanes.

Back before AL 35 was 4 laned southeast of Scottsboro, AL, it was a 2 lane and that old bridge was a true nail biter before the road was twinned.

If we're counting bridges, The Hood River Bridge across the Columbia between OR and WA comes to mind. Lanes are 9 ft 4.75 in according to their website. I drive it a few times a year, certainly not a walk in the park, though I've never had an issue with it. GSV Link

[Sctvhound]

The Grace Bridge (old US 17) over the Cooper River in Charleston. Used to be one lane each way until the 1966 Pearman Bridge opening. With like 9-10' lanes. And big trucks crossing all the time.

By NY parkway standards those are pretty typical lane widths (around 10'). There are sections of the Bronx River Parkway and Jackie Robinson Parkway that are noticably much narrower, the former with barely 8 foot wide lanes.

I think this view shows just how tiny the Jackie Robinson really is quite well.

True, but look at the right lane in my example. I know it's probably just the bridge/guardrail, but that does not look 10' to me.

From experience driving Front Street, it wasn't a problem. If anything, the speed limit could have been 40 or 45.

So, every single time a chunk of concrete crumbles off the Jersey barrier, does it cause vehicle damage?  I don't see much opportunity to swerve around it.
