New York State Route 122 (NY 122) is an east–west state highway in northern Franklin County, New York, United States. The western terminus of the route is at an intersection with NY 37 in the town of Westville. Its eastern terminus is at a junction with U.S. Route 11 in the town of Burke. Near its midpoint, NY 122 has a short overlap with NY 30 in the town of Constable. NY 122 serves as a northerly bypass of the village of Malone, situated 6 miles (10 km) to the south.

History

In the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York, a north–south highway in the town of Bangor that linked the hamlets of Bangor and North Bangor was designated as part of NY 187, an east–west route connecting Nicholville to North Bangor via Bangor. Farther north, an east–west roadway between NY 10 (now NY 30) in Constable and U.S. Route 11 in Burke was assigned the NY 188 designation.^[4] NY 187 was realigned ca. 1937 to continue east from Bangor to Malone.^[1][5] Its former routing between Bangor and North Bangor was designated as NY 122 by the following year.^[2] Meanwhile, NY 188 was extended west to NY 37 in Westville ca. 1932^[6][7] before it was removed ca. 1939.^[8][9]

On April 1, 1980, ownership and maintenance of former NY 188 (by this point redesignated as County Route 22^[10]) was transferred from Franklin County to the state of New York as part of a highway maintenance swap between the two levels of government. In return, the state transferred ownership and maintenance of all of NY 122 to Franklin County.^[11] The new Westville–Burke state highway became part of NY 122, which was extended north along CR 19 to Westville Center and east along former NY 188 to Burke.^[12] NY 122 was truncated between 1985 and 1993 to consist only of the state-maintained part of the route between Westville and Burke.^[13][14]
