There are four county highways with designations above 900 in the Niagara County, New York county road system. None of these designations are signed as Niagara County does not sign their highways, and thus are better known by their accompanying road name. The locations of the four routes are scattered across the county.
Three of the four routes—County Route 902 (Lower Mountain Road in the town of Cambria), County Route 903 (Hinman Road in the town of Lockport), and County Route 905 (Griswold Road in the town of Royalton)—do not overlap other routes. The fourth, County Route 907, is a designation for a 5-mile (8.0 km) long county-maintained portion of New York State Route 18F alongside the Niagara River. All four highways were assigned by 1996 and are marked on New York State Department of Transportation digital raster quadrangles.
County Route 907 is the highest three-digit county route in terms of designation in the state of New York. Overall, it is the second-highest numbered county route in the state; only County Route 1345 in the Saratoga County town of Mechanicville has a higher designation.

County Route 902 (CR 902) is an east–west county highway located in the town of Cambria and the town of Lockport. The route heads eastward along Lower Mountain Road, continued by County Route 116 and New York State Route 425 along its right-of-way to the west. The western terminus is at an intersection with NY 425, and the eastern terminus is located at the Lockport city line, where the Route 902 designation ends, and the maintenance along Lower Mountain Road becomes County Route 125. However, the Niagara County Department of Economic Development marks on their September 2008 map, that the highway continues as County Route 128, not 125.[2]
Route 902 begins at an intersection with NY 425 in the community of Cambria Center. The highway progresses eastward through the rural segments of Niagara County, passing fields and residential homes along the stretch of Lower Mountain Road. The route intersects with Green Road, where it forks, with CR 902 heading to the northeast, and County Route 64 (Thrall Road) heading to the southeast.[1]
CR 902 continues through the same regions, intersecting with Plank Road and Budd Road, which head northward out of Cambria. The highway heads eastward, entering the community of Hickory Corners, where it intersects with New York State Route 93, which is co-designated by the Niagara County Highway Department as County Route 114. The route heads straight eastward for a short distance, until turns to the southeast, intersecting with Leete Road. After a short distance, Route 902 intersects with Gothic Hill Road and crosses the line into the city of Lockport, where it continues as County Route 125 (Niagara Street Extension).[1]
Route 902 was assigned by 1996 along the alignment of Lower Mountain Road by 1996 and has remained intact on its alignment since.[3][4][1]

County Route 905 (CR 905) is a north–south county-maintained highway entirely in the town of Royalton. The route is known locally in Royalton as Griswold Street. Route 905 progresses its way northward from its southern terminus, New York State Route 77 (Lewiston Road) to its northern terminus at an intersection with NY 31 (Telegraph Road) and County Route 139 (Carmen Road). CR 139 is the continuation of Griswold Road northward. The only intersections in between are with local roads in Royalton.

The route heads northward from Lewiston Road, passing through fields for a long distance. There is an intersection with Johnson Road, passing more fields, and intersecting with Chestnut Ridge Road, a county-maintained roadway.[6]
CR 905 continues northward, passing through more local fields. There is an intersection with Graham Road, a local road in the area.

A short distance later, County Route 905 terminates at an intersection with NY 33 (Telegraph Road) in Royalton. CR 139 (Carmen Road) continues ahead.[6]
Griswold Road was originally named over one of the original fifteen overseers of highways in Royalton, New York, John Griswold. Griswold had just moved into Royalton area in 1816, which was named Griswold Street.[7] Route 905 was assigned by 1996 along the Griswold Street alignment, according to the New York State Department of Transportation Digital Raster Quadrangles.[8] The highway has remained intact since.[6]
