| Location: | Babylon–Deer Park |
| Existed: | 1970–present |
County Route 34 is Deer Park Avenue in the Village of Babylon and North Babylon. It was a former segment of CR 35 that was established in 1970 when the New York State Department of Transportation created what was intended to be a temporary alignment of NY 231.
Babylon village maintains the section of CR 34 within the village. Here, CR 34 is the eastern terminus of CR 12 on the southeast corner of Babylon Station, and after crossing under the Babylon–Montauk Branch of the Long Island Rail Road, instantly intersects the western terminus of CR 50.
Outside of the village limits, CR 34 crosses over Sunrise Highway as part of exit 40, which is primarily for NY 231 to the east. Though CR 34 terminates at NY 231 in Deer Park, just south of the Southern State Parkway's exit 39, Deer Park Avenue continues northward as NY 231 well into Dix Hills.

Famous quotes containing the words county and/or route:
“Jack: A politician, huh?
Editor: Oh, county treasurer or something like that.
Jack: What’s so special about him?
Editor: They say he’s an honest man.”
—Robert Rossen (1908–1966)
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
