Little York Road is the longest street in Houston, Texas[1] consisting of three segments totaling . The main segment runs east–west in the northern part of Harris County from Mesa Road in Houston to just west of Fry Road in Katy, spanning about 29.4 miles long [2] and is known as West Little York Road on some parts westwards. Its major junctions include US Highway 290 (US 290), Hardy Toll Road, State Highway 6 (SH 6), Interstate 69 (I-69)/US Highway 59 (US 59), Interstate 45 (I-45) and the Beltway 8/Sam Houston Tollway.

The proposed extension of the main segment (east-west) would go from Westgreen Boulevard (its current western terminus) to Porter Road.[3]

The middle segment of the street, referred to as "East Little York Road," is a short, east–west path from C.E. King Parkway and curves into Churchill Oaks Lane. This portion is 0.8 miles long.[4]

The east segment begins at the North Sam Houston Parkway and concludes at Pineland Road at Sheldon Lake. This is the shortest of the three segments at 0.3 miles long.[5]

A proposed expansion of Little York Road from John Ralson Road to North Sam Houston Parkway would interconnect the "middle" and "" segments.[6]
