High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! New York State Route 446 (NY 446) is a state highway in the Southern Tier of New York in the United States. It parallels the Southern Tier Expressway (NY 17 and Interstate 86, or I-86) very closely between Hinsdale and Cuba. The western terminus of the route is at an intersection with NY 16 north of the hamlet of Hinsdale. The eastern terminus is at a junction with NY 305 in Cuba. NY 446 was originally designated as part of NY 17 in 1924. It was renumbered twice, becoming part of NY 63 in 1930 and part of NY 408 in the early 1940s. It gained its current designation ca. 1975 after NY 408 was truncated to its current southern terminus in Nunda.
