New York State Route 41 (NY 41) is a north–south

Interstate 86) in the town of Sanford in Broome County, New York. Its northern terminus is at an intersection with U.S. Route 20 (US 20) in the village of Skaneateles. The route is almost 100 miles (161 km) long and passes through Broome, Chenango, Cortland, and Onondaga counties. NY 41 was assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York, replacing New York State Route 70 from Homer to Skaneateles. The route initially extended as far north as Jordan
; however, NY 41 was cut back to its current northern terminus c. 1933.

Route description

Sanford to Greene

NY 41 begins at

County Route 26 (CR 26). The highway turns northeast, paralleling I-88 into the village of Afton.[3]

In Afton village, NY 41 connects to I-88 by way of an eastward extension of Maple Avenue. NY 41 turns northwest at this junction, following Maple Avenue across the

overlaps with NY 7 before exiting the village and heading northwestward through two more river valleys to the town of Coventry, where it meets NY 206 in the hamlet of Coventryville.[3]

The two routes converge here and head west to the hamlet of Coventry, where they intersect the northern end of

CR 32, which joins the two state highways for two blocks before splitting off to the south at a junction on the eastern bank of the Chenango River. NY 41 and NY 206 continue west across the river into the village center, where the two routes meet NY 12. Here, NY 41 leaves NY 206 and follows NY 12 northward through the western portion of the village. The concurrency lasts for just 0.5 miles (0.8 km) before NY 41 splits from NY 12 and exits Greene village.[3]

Greene to Cortland

NY 41 in Willets, north of NY 26

The route continues north through the towns of Greene and Smithville to the hamlet of Smithville Flats, where it meets the western terminus of NY 220. NY 41 heads northwest from this junction, passing by Long Pond and Cincinnatus Lake before crossing into Cortland County and the town of Willet. In the hamlet of the same name, NY 41 intersects NY 26. It joins NY 41 here, and the two routes proceed northwest from the hamlet and across the Otselic River to a junction with the east end of NY 221. Past this point, NY 26 and NY 41 head due north along the river's west bank into the town of Cincinnatus.[3]

The overlap comes to an end near the hamlet of Gee Brook, where NY 41 splits from NY 26 and veers northwestward into a rural valley surrounding a small stream that gives the hamlet of Gee Brook its name. NY 41 crosses through the northeastern corner of the town of Freetown and the southern portion of the town of Solon on its way to the town of Cortlandville, where it intersects I-81 and US 11 west of the village of McGraw. US 11 and NY 41 come together here and parallel I-81 westward toward the city of Cortland. Just east of the city line, I-81 veers north to avoid downtown Cortland while US 11 and NY 41 continue west across the Tioughnioga River and into the city.[3]

US 11 and NY 41 follow Port Watson Street into downtown Cortland, where they meet NY 13 at Church Street. All three routes turn north here, following Church Street for three blocks to Groton Avenue. Here, NY 13 turns east to follow Groton Avenue (which becomes Clinton Road) out of the city while US 11 and NY 41 turns west onto Groton, joining NY 222, which begins at the junction of Groton Avenue and Church Street.[3] Here, maintenance of the route shifts from the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) to the city of Cortland.[4] The overlap between NY 41 and NY 222 ends two blocks later when US 11 and NY 41 turn north onto Main Street. The two routes remain on Main Street up to Homer Avenue, at which point the two routes veer onto Homer Avenue and follow it out of the city,[3] at which point maintenance of NY 41 becomes the responsibility of NYSDOT once more.[4]

Cortland to Skaneateles

Now in the adjacent

NY 930Q by NYSDOT. The two routes continue on into the village center, where they meet the southern terminus of NY 90. The overlap between US 11 and NY 41 ends three blocks later when NY 41 leaves US 11 and follows Clinton Street to the northwest. NY 41 intersects with NY 281 before leaving Homer village.[3]

Just over 2 miles (3.2 km) northwest of the Homer village limits in the

Skaneateles to the village of Skaneateles, where NY 41 ends at a junction with US 20.[3]

History

From the mid-1920s to 1930, the road connecting the village of

Quickway c. 1960.[11]

NY 41A

NY 41A (25.49 miles or 41.02 kilometres) is a western alternate route of NY 41 which runs from Homer to Skaneateles along the west shore of Skaneateles Lake.[1] It was assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York.[12]
