Route 390 continues northerly from Bath towards the New York State Thruway and Rochester. I-390 is the principal route from the Southern Tier into both Rochester and Buffalo. Click here for I-390 images.
Steuben County Town of Wheeler	View looking westerly as I-390 begins its trek northerly from I-86. I-86 seemingly exits itself at this interchange. In my (albeit limited) experience, this interchange design reflects the predominant traffic movement.

Steuben County Town of Bath	Advanced signage for the I-390 interchange. Note the use text delineating which lanes follow which route -- though effective, it seems a little awkward given the extensive use of symbols which I am used to.

US Route 15 begins southerly at I-86 continuing through Gang Mills and into Pennsylvania. Click here for US-15 images.
Steuben County Town of Erwin	This view looks westerly at the split to US-Route 15 from I-86 West. The US-15 interchange was recently reconfigured providing free-flow movements from US-15 to all directions of I-86. This work was done in conjunction with the eventual extension of Interstate 99 into New York State.

Steuben County Town of Erwin	View of the advanced signage for the Route 394 atop the Chautauqua Lake Bridge. The day I shot this photo, NYSDOT was repairing the concrete bridge deck. As much as I like concrete highways it drives me nuts when concrete is repaired and not diamond ground smooth once the surface has hardened.

Steuben County Town of Erwin	Overhead exit sign for NY 417 (Exit 44 B) on I-86 West. The lengthy exit ramp diverges from the mainline freeway just prior to the NY 352 interchange, and straddles the mainline freeway for a distance until arriving at a signalized intersection with NY 417 (former US 15) amidst the new semi-directional "Y" interchange that marks US 15's Northern Terminus at I-86.

Chemung County City of Elmira	Westerly view along I-86 from the East Avenue overpass in Elmira. Prior to 2008, this section of the Southern Tier Expressway was only designated as Route 17. The Interstate 86 designation was pushed easterly when the traffic signals between Route 14 and Route 13 were eliminated. The interstate 86 designation continues a few miles east of East Avenue to the Brant Road at-grade intersection.

Chemung County City of Elmira	Easterly view along Route 17/Interstate 86 towards the Church Street and Water Street interchanges. The interchanges are linked together due to their close proximity.

Route 352 meets the Southern Tier Expressway at a double diamond interchange in Eastern Elmira. Route 352 is the principal state route through Elmira and Corning. Click here for Route 352 images.
Chemung County City of Elmira	Two views from the eastern ridge surrounding the City of Elmira. Elmira has a population of roughly 30,000 residents, and is situated along the Chemung River. Residents have slowly been fleeing scenic Elmira as heavy manufacturing and the railway industry have slowly declined in the area. Elmira was first settled as an important transportation hub within the Southern Tier of the State.
