NY: NY 96 in Rochester
« on: April 27, 2023, 08:30:13 pm »
I drove the northernmost portion of what we have as NY 96 in Rochester today.  I turned on to East Ave. from Union St and took East Ave. south/eastbound.  I did not see any indication that I was on NY 96 until the mess where it crosses through the I-490/I-590/NY 590 ramps.

Like many routes through cities in NY, signage for NY 96 mostly disappears once NYSDOT jurisdiction ends.  That said, signage on Winton Road shows that it does indeed continue into the city, even if official sources are needed to know exactly where.
Please note: All comments here represent my own personal opinion and do not reflect the official position of NYSDOT or its affiliates.

ISTR this had a topic in the past, though I won't attempt to look one up ATM. I do remember examining this endpoint, throwing up my hands, and going no-build.

Re-examining the sources:
TDR & shapefiles show Main St.
Tour Book lists Inner Loop.

Of these 2 options, the no-build option (UniSt, formerly the Inner Loop) is closer to where signage disappears.

FWIW, I did not photograph any NY 96 shields when I clinched the Inner Loop in August 2022.
