Route description

A two-lane highway, NY 146A heads northward from a four-way intersection with NY 146 at Vischer Ferry Road (Saratoga CR 90), which continues southward from that intersection to Crescent Road (Saratoga CR 92) in Vischer Ferry. After passing over a railway, NY 146A turns westward and becomes Ballson Lake Road, passing by the Van Patten Golf Course and a link to Ushers. After crossing Ashdown Road, NY 146A turns northward, descending into the hamlet of Ballston Lake, where it has a railroad crossing. After passing the eastern terminus of County Route 339, it becomes Midline Road, heading northward to its eventual terminus at NY 50.[4]

History

In 1908, the New York State Legislature created Route 25, an unsigned legislative route extending from Whitesboro to Albany by way of the southern portion of Adirondack Park. From Saratoga Springs to Albany, Route 25 used what is now NY 50, NY 146A, and U.S. Route 9.[5][6] The segment of legislative Route 25 from Ballston Lake to Clifton Park was designated as NY 146A ca. 1932.[1][2]

Major intersections

The entire route is in Saratoga County.
