County Route 574 (CR 574) is an east–west

county route north of East Aurora in Erie County, New York, in the United States. The western terminus of the route is at New York State Route 16 (NY 16) and NY 78 in the town of Elma. Its eastern terminus is at Two Rod Road, a state-maintained north–south highway in the town of Marilla
. The entire length of CR 574 is named "Jamison Road".

Parts of CR 574 carried a state highway designation as early as 1930. By 1931, the entirety of CR 574 was designated as New York State Route 422. Ownership and maintenance of NY 422 was transferred from the state of New York to Erie County on April 1, 1980, and the NY 422 designation officially ceased to exist on September 25, 1980.

Route description

CR 574 begins at an intersection with NY 16 and NY 78 (Seneca Street) northwest of East Aurora in the town of Elma. The route heads eastward along Jamison Road, passing south of a predominantly residential neighborhood and north of a large industrial complex. The latter ends after 0.5 miles (0.8 km), and CR 574 continues on to an interchange with the Aurora Expressway (NY 400).
