[edit] Routing through downtown Buffalo?

I was doing some work on the I-190 exit list today, and in the process, I found myself wondering what path NY 16, which parallels the expressway south and east of downtown, takes through Buffalo. The trip-planning software that I use, as well as Google Maps, shows NY 16 entering downtown on Seneca Street, and continuing on Seneca past Swan Street's eastern terminus to Harriet Tubman Way then Swan then to Ellicott Street, where it ends at NY 5. The distance measurement in the Erie County NYSDOT traffic count, however, indicates that NY 16 remains on Swan Street from its start at Seneca Street to Ellicott Street. On the other hand, the DOT map shows NY 16 running north on Swan and south on Seneca.

Does anyone know which of these, if any, is the correct routing? --TMF Let's Go Mets - Stats 22:05, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
