History

What became NY 31B was originally designated as NY 293 as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York.[7] NY 293 was renumbered to NY 31B c. 1933, allowing the NY 293 designation to be transferred to another highway in Orange County.[2][3] NY 31B remained unchanged until January 2, 1980, when the NY 31B designation was removed.[4]

Ownership and maintenance of NY 31B's former routing was gradually transferred to the counties it went through, namely Cayuga and Onondaga. The first section to be transferred was the portion within Onondaga County, which was given to the county on April 1, 1980,[8] and designated as CR 99.[9] The Cayuga County section of former NY 31B was transferred to the county one year later on April 1, 1981,[8] and designated as CR 31B for the state route that preceded it.[10]
