County routes in Genesee County, New York, are not posted on route markers. However, the number is given, along with house numbers, often on intersection blade signs. There is no apparent numbering pattern. County routes generally comprise one or more named roads, or portions thereof, strung together to form a single continuous unit. These usually extend for some distance, connecting primary highways in two or more towns. The majority of the county's roads are assigned to the towns. Nowhere does any county route wholly enter either a village or the city of Batavia. Routes 1 through 10 are listed below.
County Route 1
County Route 1 is a north–south route that runs through the towns of Alexander, Bethany and Batavia. For almost its entire length, CR 1 roughly parallels NY 98, which runs to the west of CR 1. The route begins at NY 98 in the town of Alexander. At 0.71 miles CR 1 (named Stroh Road) intersects Spring Road. CR 1 continues north from here as Sandpit Road until reaching US 20. Here, CR 1 changes names to Brookville Road and the roadway winds to the northeast. In the hamlet of East Alexander, CR 1 intersects West Bethany Road. CR 1 turns north at this point and again changes names, this time assuming the name Creek Road. The route heads north into the town of Batavia, where it ends at the Batavia city line.
