By car

 • Tarrytown is easily accessible from the northeastern United States of America via interstate highways such as the New England and New Jersey Turnpikes (I95) and the New York State Thruway system. The I87 portion of the Thruway connecting Albany and New York City crosses the Hudson River at Tarrytown on the Tappan Zee bridge as does I287, which connects with I95 to the east. The Saw Mill River Parkway, which runs along the village's eastern flank, connects with the Taconic State Parkway to the north (to Albany and the I90 east-west portion of the Thruway system) and the Henry Hudson Parkway into New York City.

By train

 • Metro-North Railroad - Hudson line - Express service between Tarrytown station and New York City's Grand Central Terminal is about 35 minutes. Local service is available between other Metro-North commuter stations.
