[edit] Route description
NY 222 begins at an intersection with NY 38 in the village of Groton. It heads due east through the village as East Cortland Street into the surrounding town of Groton, where it becomes Cortland Road as it passes through rural northeastern Tompkins County. At Lafayette Corners, NY 222 veers northeastward to avoid a large hill to the south. Upon passing the northern tip of the land mass, the route turns to the southeast and enters Cortland County. In the town of Cortlandville, NY 222 follows a northeasterly routing as it passes by the Cortland County – Chase Field Airport and intersects NY 281, a route that partially serves as a western bypass of downtown Cortland. NY 222 continues eastward into downtown Cortland, where it ends at U.S. Route 11, NY 13, and NY 41, all co-signed along Church Street. NY 222 has a short overlap with US 11 and NY 41 between Church Street and Main Street. All of NY 222 within the city of Cortland is maintained by the city.
[edit] History
NY 222 was assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York and has not been changed since.[1]
