New York State Route 132 - NY 132A

NY 132A

NYS Route 132A
Location: Yorktown
Existed: 1930–mid-1970s

NY 132A was a suffixed route of NY 132 in the town of Yorktown. When it was initially assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York, NY 132A was an alternate route of NY 132 along Mohansic Avenue and Baldwin Road, providing access from NY 132 to Mohansic State Park. Part of Mohansic Avenue was demolished in the early 1930s to make way for the Taconic State Parkway, splitting the route into two pieces. The western segment was removed from the state highway system while the eastern stub remained designated as NY 132A. NY 132 was truncated to Yorktown in the early 1940s, separating it from NY 132A; however, NY 132A was not renumbered or otherwise altered. The route remained in existence until the mid-1970s, at which time maintenance of Mohansic Avenue and Baldwin Road was transferred to the town of Yorktown.
