View looking northerly from Hill Island towards the north suspension bridge that carries Highway 137 overtop of the Saint Lawrence River from mainland Ontario onto Hill Island.  The International boundary divides Hill Island in half, half in Ontario, half in New York State.  South of the border, Highway 137 becomes Interstate 81.

Highway 137 looking south from the Thousand Islands Parkway overhead.  This picture shows Highway 137's transition between freeway and conventional highway.  The building located in the southbound lanes is the Thousand Islands Bridge toll booth.  South of the toll booth, Highway 137 is a conventional highway for the remainder of its length.

This picture shows much of the Highway 137 interchange with the Thousand Islands Parkway.  Before Highway 401 bypassed the Thousand Islands Parkway, Highway 137 would have ended here at a 'halfclo' interchange.  Presently the interchange is a 5-ramp-Parclo-AB3.

The exit signage for the trumpet interchange with Highway 401.  Highway 137 ends at Highway 401.  The right lane leads to Montreal and Ottawa via Highway 416.  The 2 left lanes narrow into one about 500 metres ahead, and join the westbound 401.
