Robert Moses Causeway southbound

[@rocknmetal4life94]

I was on my motorcycle the first time I went over this span. Being so free, open and so close to the water was surreal.

[@myrealityzone]

Ah....the bridge of my youth! Miss living on Long Island!

[@beholden1663]

I grew up on Long Island and as a kid in the 1970’s and 80’s Jones Beach and Point Lookout were the beaches my family went to. Then in the 1990’s I discovered Robert Moses. It had a very cool nude beach ( I think it’s closed now) which was connected to Fire Island. I used to drive from Nassau County to Robert Moses field 5 or 6 and went over this Bridge many times. It is a beautiful bridge. Brought me back to memories of going to Robert Moses beach in the 1990’s. Thanks for posting.

I got my first speeding ticket on this stretch of highway, sure brings back memories.

[@OFFSHOREJOJO]

Very nice beaches and very special place for us growing up on Long island!Road to Paradise!!

[@codprocamp4690]

Last time I visited I was a toddler back in the early 80's, watching this is surreal.

@lexx41 That's right. This was part of the much larger Long Island Park System that was drawn up by RM at the same time as the NYC highway and parkway network. It's amazing to consider the huge scale of these plans collectively and the impact that they have had in the years since they were built...

[@JsBluRays]

Those are some beautiful arch spans!

I miss living on Long Island

[@beholden1663]

Long Island is a place I yearn for as I moved to the Carolina’s over 13 years ago as have many LI many transplants. I miss it dearly but when I spect some time there for a few months a few years back I got sick of it and wanted to get out. You miss Long Island when you move away but want to escape it when living there.

@John Duffy III. When I was much younger Captree was one of my Dad's favorite fishing spots. My Grandmother lived in Lindenhurst. You probably remember when the Moses Causeway had a toll booth just before the water, the guardrails were wooden and the road signs were in black as opposed to green. It was the same way on most of the LI parkways. I miss those days.

[@tommcconville4270]

I remember that too Frank. My aunt, uncle and cousins lived in West Islip, and the signposts to Captree and Robert Moses had the black and wood signposts. Southern State Parkway too, and toll booths in the sixties.

[@KOOL2011]

Looking forward to it this summer.

[@8avexp]

I haven't ridden on that bridge since 1969, when my aunt and uncle lived in Farmingdale.

[@AdanaKiller]

literally everyday i use ocean prkwy from meadowbrook to robert moses to go to bayshore from rvc, in the rush hour, it cuts down the time in half.

[@Technoid52]

I drove on that road more times than I can remember. I had to 4x4 on the beach to make repairs at various pump houses. No fun over there whan you have to work year round in all kinds of weather.

[@roadwaywiz]

@lexx41 That's an interesting and great point that I never though about myself; I spend a lot of time in the Buffalo area so I'm very familiar with the Grand Island Bridges...

[@JohnNashvilleProductions]

Such a good highway but also they had that Hurricane back 9 years

[@comkris551000]

I like this video, watching it,I feel like to drive in U.S. highway. I have got a guestion - which format is this ?

[@frankmaiorana66]

You probably remember when there was a toll right Southbound right after Rt 27A.

[@tommcconville4270]

27A is Montauk Highway, my aunt, uncle and cousins lived a mile from it in West Islip.

[@lb10003]

So, did you go to the beach, lol? My parents watched the Fire Island Inlet Bridge being built back in the 60's, and they remembered when there was just the older, two lane bridge across Great South Bay. Nice to watch on a January day while I'm longing for summer.

[@rellik187redrum]

Went there in 84

[@roadwaywiz]

@lb10003 I've been to RM St. Park many times (both the beach and the golf course as well). the way the weather has been lately, maybe i should head back there for a couple days!

[@SteveCarras]

With these I can take a trip and never leave my state

[@elielplays]

Do you live in New York?

[@roadwaywiz]

@comkris551000 its a .mov file if thats what u mean...

[@qw43gdtyghdrth]

Do you have to pay tolls orentrance fee to get on the beach??

[@roadwaywiz]

you have to pay a park entrance fee only if you are parking at one of the lots

[@Muilisxx]

I ride my 636 over to the pencil and back all the time :)

[@antiiv11]

Muilisx was just thinking about how nice of a ride this would be haha

[@tommcconville4270]

It's he Southern State first, then the Robert Moses Causeway.

[@unclechris6119]

You can see new York city and stony brook hospital from the bridge

[@LongIslandCityLayout]

Yes, I've noticed that. You can see One world Trade, in Manhattan.

[@mistamarsh]

Stony brook hospital is on the north shore and I've never seen new York city from the bridge

[@Grizbox]

Hey you should speed these videos up. I like watching the videos where they run the video at 5X's the normal rate. Like Freewayjim.

[@roadwaywiz]

I'm good, thanks.

[@metalhead6409]

You can do that yourself if you want using the settings on the video.

[@tommcconville4270]

This keyboard sucks. When I type THE, that's what I expect to GET!!!
