County routes in Onondaga County, New York, are not signed in any form, serving as little more than references for inventory purposes. One county route, County Route 91 (CR 91), has route markers posted along its length; however, the signs display the number "57" for New York State Route 57 (NY 57), the road's former designation. Several route numbers comprise multiple highways, which do not always connect to one another.

Editorial summary

Editorial reviewA practical starting point whose main value is the path it opens into stronger specialist and primary sources. The current 70-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with List, county and routes providing the first useful test.
