New England Route 28 (NE-28) was a 180-mile (290 km) north–south New England Interstate Route from Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts (at NE-3) to Ossipee, New Hampshire (at NE-16) via Boston and Manchester, New Hampshire. The portion in Massachusetts has since been extended east into Cape Cod (along the original alignment of NE-3) and currently ends at the Orleans Rotary in the town of Orleans with US 6 and Route 6A.
The 1922 plan originally had NE-28 ending in Bethel, Maine. North of Ossipee, the original route followed current New Hampshire Route 16 (NE-16) to Conway, then U.S. Route 302 (NE-18) to Fryeburg, Maine, and then State Route 5 to Bethel. There have been some minor realignments over the years, particularly in urban areas, but the original route remains mostly intact. NE-28 parallels Route 25/I-495 from Bourne, Massachusetts to Bridgewater; Route 24 from Bridgewater to Quincy; and I-93 from Quincy to Manchester, New Hampshire.
