New York State Route 33 - Suffixed Routes

Suffixed Routes

NY 33 has one current alternate route and one former spur designation that has been reused multiple times.

  • NY 33A (17.15 miles or 27.60 kilometres) is an alternate route in the Rochester area that was assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York.
  • NY 33B is a designation that has been used for three different routes since the 1930s.
    • The original NY 33B was an alternate route of NY 33 through eastern Monroe and western Wayne counties. It was assigned c. 1931 and mostly renumbered to NY 31F when NY 33 was truncated to Rochester in 1949.
    • The second NY 33B was assigned to Brooks Avenue and Genesee Park Boulevard between NY 33A and NY 383 in Gates and Rochester. It was assigned c. 1962 and removed c. 1965. The Gates portion of its former routing is now part of NY 204.
    • The third alignment was a spur in the Buffalo area that followed NY 33's pre-Kensington Expressway routing on Genesee Street. It was assigned c. 1965 and removed in the mid-1970s. The section of former NY 33B between current NY 33 and the Buffalo city line is now NY 952A, an unsigned reference route.

Famous quotes containing the word routes:

    The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.
    Terri Apter (20th century)
