History
NY 183 was assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York. It originally began at NY 69 in Amboy Center and continued north through Williamstown to the hamlet of Redfield. In Williamstown, NY 183 had a short overlap with NY 13. NY 183 was truncated on its northern end to NY 13 in Williamstown c. 1940. The former routing of NY 183 north of Williamstown is now part of CR 17.
