New York State Route 367 is one of New York's shortest state highways, located entirely within the Chemung County village of Wellsburg. It serves as the main street of Wellsburg, running from the Pennsylvania state line just south of town to NY 427 just north of it.

There is no corresponding signed state route on the Pennsylvania side of the border, where it becomes an unsigned quadrant route.

[edit] Route description

One of New York's shortest state routes, NY 367 begins at the state line at Wellsburg. Known as Main Street, the route proceeds north to an intersection with Doty Hill Road, and shortly after intersects Comfort Hill Road. The Benwick Turnpike comes in from the west, and NY 367 crosses a small creek. As it enters Wellsburg, it intersects several local streets, and the highway terminates at NY 427 in Wellsburg.[3]

[edit] History

NY 367 was assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering to an alignment extending from the Pennsylvania state line at Wellsburg to NY 17 in the hamlet of Lowman.[2][4] It was truncated to its current northern terminus at NY 427 in Wellsburg in the late 1940s.[5][6] The connector over the Chemung River between Wellsburg and Lowman is now maintained by Chemung County as County Route 8.[7]
