NY 347 NY 349

New York State Route 348 (NY 348) was a state highway located within the town of Chazy in Clinton County, New York, United States. It stretched for 6.2 miles (10 kilometers) from NY 22 in the hamlet of West Chazy to U.S. Route 9 (US 9) in the hamlet of Chazy and passed under the Adirondack Northway (Interstate 87 or I-87). NY 348 did not intersect any state routes or pass through any communities other than those at each of its termini.

When NY 348 was originally assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York, it began in West Chazy and ended in the village of Champlain. The route was extended northeastward to Rouses Point by 1931, then truncated to the hamlet of Chazy in the early 1960s. NY 348 ceased to exist entirely in 1980, at which time its former routing became County Route 24 (CR 24).

Route description

NY 348 began at an intersection with Route 22 and West Church Street in the hamlet of West Chazy,[4] located 2 miles (3.2 km) east of Flat Rock State Forest.[5] The route headed eastward, intersecting with local roads. After crossing a pair railroad tracks, Route 348 turned to the northeast towards Chazy at an intersection with Ketchum Bridge Road and Stratton Hill Road. As the highway headed to the northeast, it passed through rural sections of Clinton County, full of farms and forests.[4]

Further northeast, Route 348 passed Kinsey Road. The highway then paralleled Route 22 as it continued to the northeast. Route 348 then intersected Slosson Road just after 2 miles (3 km). It then intersected with Clark Street and Ridge Road before turning to the east. A little time later, Route 348 crossed over the Adirondack Northway (I-87) with no access to the expressway. Route 348 ended shortly afterward at US 9 in Chazy just north of the Little Chazy River.[4]

History

NY 348 was assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York. At the time, it began at NY 22 in the hamlet of West Chazy and ended at US 11 in the village of Champlain. NY 348 had an overlap with US 9 from Chazy to what is now NY 9B in the town of Champlain. Here, US 9 forked to the east and followed the length of modern NY 9B to Rouses Point.[1] NY 348 was extended east to Rouses Point along US 11 and what is now NY 276 by the following year.[6]

In the mid-1940s, US 9 was rerouted to follow its modern alignment through Champlain, creating a lengthy overlap between NY 348 and US 9 from Chazy hamlet to Champlain village.[7][8] The overlaps with both US 9 and US 11 were eliminated in the early 1960s after NY 348 was truncated on its northern end to its junction with US 9 in Chazy.[9][10]

NY 348 was removed from the state highway system in 1980. The designation officially ceased to exist on January 7, 1980,[2] and ownership and maintenance of the route was transferred from the state of New York to Clinton County on April 1, 1980, as part of a highway maintenance swap between the two levels of government.[11] The former routing of NY 348 was redesignated as CR 24.[12]

The bridge that carried NY 348 over the Little Chazy River just south of its junction with US 9 in Chazy was rehabilitated in 1995, 80 years after its initial construction in 1915.[13]

Major intersections

The entire route was in Chazy, Clinton County.
