New York State Route 312

New York State Route 312 (NY 312) is a short state highway connecting U.S. Route 6 (US 6) and NY 22 within the town of Southeast in Putnam County, New York. It allows indirect access to the village of Brewster from Interstate 84 (I-84), and is often heavily used by local residents at rush hour in preference to the more complicated nearby access to I-684. The western terminus of the route is at US 6 roughly 2 miles (3.2 km) northwest of Brewster, and the eastern is in the hamlet of Sears Corners.

Route description
NY 312 begins at US 6 in Southeast, New York just northeast of Middle Branch Reservoir, one of the many reservoirs in Putnam County which supply New York City's large need for drinking water. The route heads northeast, before veering to the north after a 0.5 mile (0.8 km) to bypass a hill high. Past the hill, the route curves eastward then northeastward as it meets I-84 by way of an interchange and approaches the hamlet of Dykemans. ==History==
History
All of modern NY 312 was originally designated as part of NY 52 in the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York. At the same time, the NY 312 designation was assigned to the entirety of what is now NY 164. The NY 312 designation was shifted southward to its current alignment in May 1937 after NY 52 was truncated to Carmel. No changes have been made to NY 312's alignment since that time. ==Major intersections==
