Route description
NY 362 begins at an intersection with NY 39 in the hamlet of Bliss, located within the town of Eagle. The route heads north through the community as a two-lane road, traversing several residential blocks ahead of a junction with Main Street (County Route 58). Past this junction, NY 362 turns northwest and heads under an abandoned railroad overpass as it leaves Bliss for less developed areas of the town of Eagle. Outside of Bliss, the highway gradually turns to the north, serving a handful of scattered residences located in otherwise open and rolling terrain in the northern part of the town. NY 362 eventually crosses into the town of Wethersfield, where the homes gradually give way to large cultivated fields ahead of the route's end at a rural junction with NY 78.[3]
History
On April 27, 1911, the state of New York awarded a contract to rebuild all of what is now NY 362. The project cost $44,785 to complete (equivalent to $1.36 million in 2023), and the reconstructed road was added to the state highway system on January 24, 1912, as unsigned State Highway 893 (SH 893).[4][5] In the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York, hundreds of state-maintained highways were given posted route numbers for the first time.[6] One of these was SH 893, which was designated NY 362.[2] The alignment of the route has not been changed since that time.[3]
Major intersections
The entire route is in Wyoming County.
