NY 5S – NY 162 Interchange in Sprakers 🗺️
About NY 5S - NY 162 Interchange in Sprakers ....
This moderate-speed interchange was built to address run-away trucks roaring down NY 162, unable to stop before hitting NY 5S, and recognizing that the prominent direction of flow of traffic is towards Fort Plain and Canajoharie from NY 162. Vehicles heading west on NY 5S from NY 162 can simply merge over to the outer lane to continue without stopping.
