This typically occurs on New York State Route 14A (NYS-14A), the town’s arterial road. It runs north-south through the center of town and provides access to Penn Yan, found along the southern town line. Two more roads lead to Penn Yan. These roads are New York State Route 364 (NYS-364) and New York State Route 54 (NYS-54). NYS-364 passes through the southwest corner of town, heading northwest and southeast.
