Talk:New York State Route 17M

History
I know from growing up in this area that 17M did not originally end at exit 118A on NYS 17; it actually continued as 17M up through Sullivan County. From exit 118A north it was was transfered to Orange County and Sullivan County respectively in the early 1970's. I will have to research this info and add it to the page. If anyone else can add to this please do so. --Censorwolf (talk) 03:58, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I've given my maps a second look, and it appears that you're correct on some level. When the Quickway was built between Wurtsboro and Fair Oaks around 1960 (I'll have to re-lookup the exact date), NY 17M was extended north along NY 17's old surface routing to what is now exit 114 east of Wurtsboro. Now, with that said, I can't find anything supporting a claim that 17M went any farther into Sullivan County than that. Additionally, the extension didn't make it to 1970 according to that year's DOT route log. –  T M F 21:50, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
