New York State Route 163 (NY 163) is an east–west state highway in Montgomery County, New York, United States. It runs from the village of Fort Plain to the town of Canajoharie in southern Montgomery County. With the exception of its eastern terminus, NY 163 is not signed with directions. Reference markers indicate its terminus in Fort Plain to be its western, although the route heads nearly due southward until Sprout Brook. Approaching that hamlet, it is named "Cherry Valley Road", and when NY 163 turns left to head eastward, CR 82 continues that road name directly to Cherry Valley. In Fort Plain, NY 163 follows Kellogg and Douglas Streets. NY 163 is a two-lane highway its entire length.

Route description

Southern split of the NY 80 / NY 163 overlap in Fort Plain

NY 163 begins concurrent to NY 80 at an intersection with NY 5S in the village of Fort Plain. NY 80 and NY 163 head southwest for two blocks before splitting. NY 163 heads southwest from here, crossing over Otsquago Creek as it exits the village limits and passes through the rural town of Minden. After passing through the hamlet of Hessville, the route turns to the south to enter the town of Canajoharie. The southward alignment continues to Sprout Brook, a community located on Canajoharie Creek, at which point the route curves back to the northeast. It loosely follows the creek to an intersection with NY 10, where NY 163 terminates.

History

The entirety of NY 163 was assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York.[1]
