[edit] Route description
Route 282 begins at the state line, where Pennsylvania Route 187 left off. Route 282 heads to the north, passing fields, farms and a few residential homes along the way. The highway intersects a former routing of itself, which heads into a field nearby. Route 282 enters the town of Nichols, where it intersects with County Route 505. In Nichols, Route 282 turns to the west at East River Road, now paralleling the Southern Tier Expressway (I-86/NY 17). The two roads interchange, the first time eastbound, and after a turn to the north with West River Road, the westbound exit. Route 282 heads out of Nichols, via a bridge over a river. Route 282 terminates at New York State Route 17C soon after.[3]
[edit] History
Route 282 was assigned to its current alignment as part of the 1930 renumbering.[2]
