Route description

NY 176 northbound from NY 370 in Cato

NY 176 begins at an intersection with

County Route 38 (CR 38; Ira Hill Road / Lysander Road). NY 176 continues north through Ira, crossing several farms before crossing the county line into Oswego County.[3]

Now in Oswego County, NY 176 is in the town of

CR 8 (Minetto–Lysander Road), which runs concurrent along NY 176 for a short distance to the north.[3]

At the northern end of Bowens Corners, NY 176 bends east off the right-of-way of CR 8, which continues north towards

CR 14 (Ley Creek Road), NY 176 crosses a railroad grade and enters the city of Fulton. In Fulton, NY 176 gains the moniker of Curtis Street, becoming a two-lane residential street. NY 176 passes through four city blocks before intersecting with NY 48 (West First Street) on the shores of the Oswego River. This intersection serves as the northern terminus of NY 176.[3]

History

When NY 176 was originally assigned as part of the

CR 4.[4][5] The northward extension of NY 176 was eliminated on April 1, 1980, as part of a highway maintenance swap between the state of New York and Oswego County. In the swap, ownership and maintenance of NY 176 north of the Fulton city line was transferred from the state to the county in exchange for maintenance of the portions of NY 3 and NY 34 between the Cayuga–Oswego County line and NY 104.[6] NY 176 was truncated to its junction with NY 48 south of Fulton following the swap while the former routing of NY 176 between the Fulton city line and CR 4 in South Scriba became CR 176.[7][8]
