A mile later, turn left onto Furnace Brook Parkway for Route 128 – which is a deprecated reference here as the portion of Route 128 that overlaps I-93 hasn’t existed since 1997 (though old school Bostonians still refer to it as such). Stay on 3A for Boston. This is also the turnoff for Quincy Square and all the John Adams historical sites.

Keep left for Route 203. Keep right for I-93/US-1, which also carries Route 3 and silent Routes 1A and 3A – so Route 3A will merge onto I-93 here, and will remain quiet (though very much on the books) all the way to the other side of the 128 corridor.
