Manlius Bypass
Background:
This "Fictional Freeway" isn't a freeway per se, but is more like a "Fictional Expressway". In the early 1970s, consideration was given to a new-location-routing of NY 92 to bypass Manlius and reduce traffic on the NY 5/NY 92 duplex near I-481. There were no indications that this new routing was to be a freeway...instead, it likely would have become an at-grade expressway. Either way, the proposal never got very far.
Fictional NY 92 recreates this expressway proposal, with a 4-lane expressway routing from I-481 just north of Jamesville Rd eastward to existing NY 92 near Oran (southeast of Manlius in the Town of Pompey).
Map/Routing:
Map will be part of a future update.
Route Log:
Mileage is based on a fictional rerouting of NY 92 beginning at West St and running along existing NY 5/Erie Blvd to I-481.
