New York State Route 205 (NY 205) is a north–south state highway in central Otsego County, New York, in the United States. It extends for from Interstate 88 (I-88) exit 13 near the city of Oneonta to a junction with NY 28 in the town of Otsego. The latter junction also marks the east end of a overlap between NY 205 and NY 80, from where NY 80 heads southeast to follow NY 28 to Cooperstown. NY 205 is a two-lane highway for its entire length and passes through the towns of Laurens and Hartwick. NY 205 originally began at NY 23 northwest of Oneonta when it was assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York. The route originally followed local, substandard roads surrounding Otego Creek; however, it was gradually moved onto its modern alignment over the course of the 1930s. It was officially extended southward from West Oneonta to connect to I-88 in 1970; however, it was not extended southward in reality until the mid-1970s. The extension created a short overlap with NY 23 west of the city. ==Route description== NY 205 begins at exit 13 off I-88 just north of the Susquehanna River in the town of Oneonta. The two-lane route heads northwestward from the exit, crossing the Interstate Highway and passing north of an office park built up alongside the freeway. Another overpass brings NY 205 over the Delaware and Hudson Railway and leads to an intersection with NY 7 (Oneida Street), the main east–west surface road through the city of Oneonta. Past NY 7, the route turns northward, serving the National Soccer Hall of Fame and another office park prior to crossing County Route 8 (CR 8, named Country Club Road). NY 205 continues on, passing through a residential area adjacent to Oneonta County Club and intersecting with NY 23 (Chestnut Street) at the club's eastern edge. NY 23 turns north at the junction, overlapping with NY 205 for about to the outskirts of the town. While NY 23 forks to the northwest to serve West Oneonta, NY 205 continues to run northward along the east side of Otego Creek through a rural section of Otsego County. It soon enters the town of Laurens, where it connects to CR 11A (Water Street) east of the village of Laurens. The short east–west county road is the only connection between NY 205 and the village, which is located on CR 11, a parallel route to NY 205 on the western bank of Otego Creek. NY 205 and CR 11 continue northeastward, following loosely parallel alignments to the hamlet of Mount Vision in the northern part of the town. In Mount Vision, NY 205 ducks northwest at an intersection with CR 46 and meets CR 11B (Mill Street), another connector between CR 11 and NY 205, near the Mount Vision Cemetery.〔 After leaving Mount Vision, the two roads parallel each other into the town of Hartwick, where both intersect with another highway crossing Otego Creek, CR 11D. The roads enter the hamlet of Jones Crossing, intersecting with another crossroad, the locally-maintained Jones Crossing Road. In the rural backdrop north of Jones Crossing, NY 205 intersects with CR 45's western terminus. The parallel alignments of NY 205 and CR 11 end a short distance to the north in the hamlet of Hartwick as CR 11 enters the community on the east–west Main Street and intersects NY 205 in the hamlet's center. CR 11 leaves NY 205 for good outside of Hartwick, continuing on a generally easterly track toward Cooperstown, while NY 205 passes Hartwick Town Park and crosses over Otego Creek as it heads northward into the town of Otsego.〔 In Otsego, NY 205 continues to run through mostly undeveloped areas to a junction with NY 80. NY 205 turns eastward here to follow NY 80 while NY 205's former northward right-of-way continues as a town highway named Raymond Fish Road. The two state routes initially head southeastward for roughly ; however, they soon curve to the northeast as they descend into a valley surrounding Oaks Creek, a tributary of the Susquehanna River. At the base of the valley, NY 80 and NY 205 meet NY 28, the primary north–south road through the area. NY 205 terminates here while NY 80 heads southeastward along NY 28, following the route through the hamlet of Oaksville toward Cooperstown.〔 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 205」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
