County Route 48 (CR 48) is a major east–west county road on the North Fork of Long Island in Suffolk County, New York, in the United States. It runs for from Sound Avenue in Mattituck to New York State Route 25 (NY 25) just outside of the village of Greenport. The route is co-signed as NY 25 Truck, which continues west along Sound Avenue toward Laurel. CR 48 was originally designated as CR 27 when it became a county road in 1930. The route was renumbered to CR 48 in 1988. ==Route description== CR 48, named Middle Road, starts at an at-grade interchange with Sound Avenue west of the hamlet of Mattituck in the town of Southold. From there through Southold, the road is four lanes wide. Besides Wickham Avenue, the road intersects with Mill Lane (former CR 84) to Oregon; Elijah's Lane, which crosses the road after the east end of Wickham Avenue; Depot Lane in Cutchogue, which leads to both the former Cutchogue railroad station and Duck Pond Point; and Bridge Lane, which was named for a railroad bridge over the Main Line of the Long Island Rail Road. In Peconic, the route intersects Mill and Peconic lanes. The latter is the main road to the former Peconic railroad station while the former leads to Goldsmith's Inlet County Park on the North Shore. East of Ackerly Pond Road in Southold, the road is two lanes wide. The first streets that the road encounters at this point are Kenny's Road and Horton Lane, both of which have north shore beaches named after them. Unlike Kenny's Road, Horton Lane spans as far south as the Southold Town Hall on NY 25, as does Youngs Avenue, which leads to Southold's railroad station and the Horton Point Lighthouse.〔 The road takes a brief northeast turn at the intersection of Boisseau Avenue before moving back toward the east at North Road. As the road approaches Hashamomuck Pond, it replaces Sound View Avenue as the northernmost road on the North Fork. Sound View Avenue leads to Goldsmith's Inlet County Park, Peconic Dunes County Park, Horton Point Lighthouse and Hashamomuck Beach. Between Hashamomuck Pond and unincorporated Greenport, a section of Middle Road near a motel with the Long Island Sound in the back yard is still paved with concrete as was commonly done during the mid-20th century. The section of old-fashioned pavement is short-lived.〔 Along the border of Greenport the road encounters a former KOA Campground which today is the privately owned Eastern Long Island Kampground. It also runs along the southern border of Inlet Point County Park, and intersects Moore's Lane as it runs north of the village. CR 48 finally ends at NY 25 on the border between Greenport and Stirling, with CR 48's right of way continuing eastward toward Orient Point as part of NY 25. All of CR 48 is part of NY 25 Truck, a truck route of NY 25 that runs between Laurel and Greenport.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「County Route 48 (Suffolk County, New York)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
