Lyon Company|language=en}}</ref> The road was first constructed in the early 19th century. It followed the path of Nine Mile Creek. It connected several early settlements in Central New York. Later, the northern half of the route was improved as a plank road in 1855. This was done by a private corporation that collected [[Toll road|toll]]s from travelers on the road. The state took over the maintenance of the road by the beginning of the 20th century. Several minor realignments have been made in the areas of the villages of Marcellus and Camillus to accommodate newly built [[Bypass (road)|bypasses]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=NYSDOT Digital Raster Quadrangles Preview GIF|url=http://gis.ny.gov/gisdata/quads/drg24/usgspreview/index.cfm?code=o43076a3|access-date=2022-09-07|website=gis.ny.gov|archive-date=2022-09-07|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220907154903/http://gis.ny.gov/gisdata/quads/drg24/usgspreview/index.cfm?code=o43076a3|url-status=dead}}</ref> == References == {{Reflist|30em}} == Other websites == {{Commons category|New York State Route 174}} [[Cate
