New York State Route 268 (NY 268) is a state highway located in southwestern Delaware County, New York, in the United States. It runs from NY 97 in Hancock north over to a bridge over Cannonsville Reservoir near the former site of the hamlet of Rock Rift in Tompkins. There, it ends at a junction with NY 10. NY 268 meets the Quickway (NY 17) east of the Hancock village limits. From Hancock to the NY 17 interchange, NY 268 follows the pre-Quickway routing of NY 17. Between NY 17 and NY 10, the route follows the former alignment of New York State Route 236, a connector between then-NY 17 and NY 10 that existed during the 1930s. In the floods of 2006 some of the areas along this rural highway suffered serious landslides, leading to a temporary closure of the road. ==Route description== NY 268 begins at an intersection with NY 97 in eastern Hancock. The route heads northeast, paralleling the Quickway (NY 17) and following the east branch of the Delaware River's northern bank through the town of Hancock toward the hamlet of Cadosia. South of the hamlet, NY 268 connects to NY 17 at exit 87A; however, there is no access between NY 268 and westbound NY 17. Just past the exit, NY 268 leaves the pre-Quickway routing of NY 17 and follows Cadosia Creek north through a large valley into Cadosia. Past Cadosia, NY 268 proceeds through a heavily rural area of Delaware County. Upon entering the town of Tompkins, the route passes through Kerry Siding, a small community composed of less than a dozen structures. Farther north, Cadosia Creek reaches its source from the town line and midway between Kerry Siding and Apex, another small hamlet situated on the route. NY 268 continues past Apex to the eastern portion of the Cannonsville Reservoir,〔 which it crosses by way of a bridge before terminating at NY 10 on the northern bank of the reservoir.〔 All of NY 268 is part of New York State Bicycle Route 17, which continues southeast toward Port Jervis on NY 97 and west toward Deposit on NY 10. 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「New York State Route 268」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
