New York State Route 140 (NY 140) is an east–west state highway located entirely within the town of Bethlehem in Albany County, New York, in the United States. The highway runs for 2.07 miles (3.33 km) from a roundabout with NY 85 near the hamlet of Slingerlands to an intersection with NY 443 in the hamlet of Delmar. The first mile (1.6 km) of the route is a four-lane divided highway named Cherry Avenue Extension, while the second mile follows a two-lane street known as Kenwood Avenue. NY 140 initially followed Kenwood Avenue from the center of Slingerlands to Delmar when it was assigned in the mid-1930s; however, the route was altered to bypass Slingerlands in the mid-1970s.

NY 140 begins at a roundabout with NY 85 northeast of Slingerlands, a hamlet in the northeastern part of the town of Bethlehem. The highway initially heads southeastward around Slingerlands, following a four-lane divided highway known as Cherry Avenue Extension for roughly 1 mile (1.6 km) through an area of forests. NY 140 intersects two local roads before reaching a four-way junction with Kenwood Avenue. Here, the route turns east onto the two-lane Kenwood Avenue while the divided highway continues southward as County Route 52 (CR 52, named Cherry Avenue). To the west, a town-owned section of Kenwood Avenue directly connects NY 140 to Slingerlands and serves as a shortcut to NY 85 west.
