Frequently Asked Questions

What are traffic conditions like on Middle Neck Road in Great Neck?

Middle Neck Road (NY-101) is Great Neck's busiest internal arterial and sees chronic congestion during morning and evening rush hours. The stretch through Great Neck village and Great Neck Estates is particularly constrained by a narrow right-of-way, on-street parking, and high pedestrian activity near the LIRR station and commercial downtown.

Is the LIE backed up near Great Neck exits?

Exit 33 (Lakeville Road/Great Neck) and Exit 32 (Shelter Rock Road) frequently back up during the evening westbound rush. The LIE approaches from the Queens-Nassau border can be congested from as early as 3:30 p.m. through 7:00 p.m. on weekdays. The Lakeville Road ramp at Exit 33 has limited stacking capacity.

What injury attorney should I contact after an accident in Great Neck?

Nassau County personal injury attorneys handle all accident claims from the Great Neck area. Many maintain offices in Mineola near the Nassau County courthouse. If your accident involved serious injuries, a free consultation with a personal injury attorney is recommended before settling with any insurance company.
