NY 402 began at what was once a ferry landing on the Hudson River west of the Tivoli village center, but within the village limits, in northwestern Dutchess County. The highway went southward from the ferry landing, paralleling the Hudson River for a short distance before it turned eastward and traversed a pair of hills as it approached the center of the village.
