New York State Route 920P (NY 920P) is an unsigned
The section of the route east of the Thruway interchange was originally maintained by Montgomery County and designated County Route 119 (CR 119).

Route description
NY 920P begins at an intersection with NY 30A in the village of Fultonville. The route, named Riverside Drive, heads eastward along the Mohawk River, paralleling the New York State Thruway (I-90) and NY 5S to the south. It initially serves a residential area of the village; however, the houses quickly give way to an area of truck stops and other businesses—predominately dining, fuel, and lodging—surrounding Riverside Drive's interchange with the Thruway on the eastern edge of the village. Past exit 28, the development along the highway slowly decreases in density as Riverside Drive heads through the town of Glen.[2]
About 1.4 miles (2.3 km) from NY 30A, the businesses cease completely while the road curves southward and heads uphill to an overpass carrying the road over the Thruway. Past the Thruway, NY 920P turns back to the east, loosely following the Thruway through an undeveloped, wooded area of the town. Riverside Drive ends 0.5 miles (0.80 km) from the Thruway overpass at a junction with NY 5S 1 mile (1.6 km) west of the
