=== Saw Mill River Parkway to Brewster === [[File:Bedford NY 684 Saw Mill 22 35 117.svg|thumb|Diagram of Interchanges 5 and 6]] The Saw Mill merges from the southeast, its two roadways forming [[service road]]s flanking I-684 for the next mile ({{Convert|1|mi|km|disp=output only}}) as it passes a southern extension of [[Muscoot Reservoir]] just east of the hamlet of [[Katonah, New York|Katonah]]. Entry from the Interstate to the parkway (and [[New York State Route 117|NY 117]], which has its northern terminus at the parkway just below the Interstate) is from the southbound lanes only. A half-mile ({{Convert|0.5|mi|m|disp=output only}}) north of the merger, the frontage roads merge into the Interstate at the exit for [[New York State Route 35|NY 35]], serving Katonah and the hamlet of [[Cross River, New York|Cross River]] to the east. After that exit, the electrified tracks of [[Metro-North Railroad]]'s [[Harlem Line]] parallel the highway to the west. They cross into the town of [[Lewisboro, New York|Lewisboro]]. {{One2a|{{convert|1|mi|km|spell=In}}}} north of that point, NY 22 parallels on the east. A northbound-only exit leads onto it, allowing access to [[New York State Route 138|NY 138]], which crosses the Interstate at the hamlet of [[Goldens Bridge, New York|Goldens Bridge]]. [[Goldens Bridge station|Its train station]] is prominently visible on the west side of the highway. North of that station is the [[North Salem, New York|North Salem]] town line. NY 22 detours slightly eastward, away from the interstate, for {{One2a|{{convert|1|mi|km|spell=in}}}}. When it returns, the roads and the railroad tracks bend strongly to the northeast, following the [[Croton River]] on their west. After {{One2a|{{convert|1|mi|km|spell=in}}}}, this brings them to I-684's next exit, at [[New York State Route 116|NY 116]], again for only northbound traffic but with southbound entry. [[Purdy's station]] is also adjacent to the highway but is screened from view by a line of trees. A quarter-mile ({{Convert|0.25|mi|m|disp=output only}}) to the north, NY 22 crosses under to the opposite side. A short distance later, the Harlem Line veers northwest, followed quickly by NY 22, as the Interstate veers northeast. The Hardscrabble Road exit serves both directions and, via NY 22, allows access to the nearby hamlet of Croton Falls. {{Convert|1|mi|km|spell=In}} past that junction, I-684 crosses into [[Putnam County, New York|Putnam County]] and the town of [[Southeast, New York|Southeast]]. Within a thousand feet ({{Convert|1000|ft|m|disp=output only}}) of the county line, the [[Brewster, New York|Brewster]] rest area serves northbound traffic. Beyond, the highway turns slightly more to the east, then swings back to the north into its northern terminus at [[Interstate 84 in New York|I-84]]. An almost-complete [[cloverleaf interchange]] guides traffic east to [[Danbury, Connecticut]], or west toward [[Newburgh, New York|Newburgh]]. Traffic continuing north remains on a controlled-access route, designated but [[unsigned highway|not signed]] as NY 981B, to the last signed exit with the [[concurrency (road)|concurrent]] routes of [[U.S. Route 6 in New York|US Route 6]] (US 6) and [[U.S. Route 202 in New York|US 202]] adjacent to [[East Branch Reservoir]]. The highway carrying both roads parallels I-84 at this point. Just past it, I-684 officially ends as NY 22 merges onto the freeway, having left the US 6/US 202 concurrency. NY 22 briefly continues north as a four-lane freeway before becoming a two-lane surface road by the at-grade intersection with Sodom and Old Milltown Roads.<ref>{{Google maps |url=https://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=brewster,+ny&ie=UTF8&z=14&ll=41.389109,-73.598871&spn=0.032261,0.086002&om=1 |access-date=June 8, 2009}}</ref>
