New York State Route 28 is a
state highway extending for 281.69 miles (453.34 km) in the shape of a "C" between the
Hudson Valley city of
Kingston and southern
Warren County in the
U.S. state of
New York. Along the way, it intersects several major routes, including
Interstate 88 (I-88),
U.S. Route 20 (US 20), and the
New York State Thruway twice. The southern terminus of NY 28 is at
NY 32 in Kingston and the northern terminus is
US 9 in
Warrensburg. NY 28 was originally assigned in 1924 to an alignment extending from
Colliersville in the south to
Utica in the north via
Ilion. From Colliersville to
Cooperstown, the highway followed its current routing (excluding minor realignments); north of Cooperstown, NY 28 was routed along several state highways that now have other designations. The route was extended south to Kingston and north to Warrensburg as part of the
1930 renumbering of state highways in New York. At the same time, Route 28 was realigned between Cooperstown and
Mohawk to follow its modern routing. (
