New York State Highway 440 is a state highway of New York State.
It is located entirely on Staten Island. It begins at the Outerbridge Crossing on the southwestern end of the island, where it connects with the Middlesex County segment of New Jersey State Highway 440.
It traverses the island's largely unpopulated meadowlands along its western flank as a freeway called the West Shore Expressway until it joins with the Staten Island Expressway (Interstate 278) in the northwest corner of the island. There are four exits between the Outerbridge Crossing and the Interstate 278 interchange.
Approximately one mile to the east, it breaks from the Staten Island Expressway and goes northward for two miles as the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Expressway (formerly known as the Willowbrook Parkway) until it reaches the Bayonne Bridge. There are two exits in this section.
On the summit of the bridge, it becomes the Hudson County segment of New Jersey State Highway 440. New York 440 thus connects the two segments of New Jersey 440.
