Route 175 begins at an intersection with U.S. Route 20 in Skaneateles.[2] Route 175 heads east on Lee Mulroy Road, intersecting with Onondaga CR 259A at 1 mile. New York State Route 41 parallels to the north as Route 175 turns to the north after the intersection with 259A. Route 175 turns to the south, intersecting with Onondaga CR 211 at 2.3 miles. Route 175 curves again to the north, becoming concurrent with New York State Route 174 at 3.5 miles. Route 175 and Route 174 head north, entering Marcellus, where they split. Route 175 heads east towards Syracuse.[2]

Route 175 becomes known as the West Seneca Turnpike and intersects with Onondaga CR 168 in Wellington Corner.[2] The next several miles become desolate, as the only intersections along the way are for Onondaga CRs. In the city of Onondaga, Route 175 intersects with Route 173, becoming concurrent. The concurrency is short as Route 175 turns and heads to the northeast at 13 miles. Route 175 leaves Onondaga and begins to enter Syracuse, where it intersects with the western terminus of New York State Route 80 at 14.26 miles. Route 175 ravages its way through Syracuse, ending at an intersection with U.S. Route 11.[2]

History

Route 175 is part of the Seneca Turnpike which is a turnpike stretching from Utica to Canandaigua.[3] The turnpike originated in 1800 with the Seneca Turnpike Corporation. At 157 miles, it was the longest route in the state. An alternate road was approved in 1806 farther north, and as the city of Syracuse grew, the alternate road gained more use. The Seneca Turnpike Company closed its doors in 1852. Route 175 doesn't follow the original route of the Turnpike anymore, but it follows the route of the New Seneca Turnpike (no relation to the old one).[4] Route 175 was assigned its number in 1930.[5] Route 175 from the 174 concurrency to the Route 173 fork was part of the original New York State Route 20N.[6] Route 20N was removed in the 1960s, however 175 remained afterward.[7]
