New York State Route 241 (NY 241) is a north–south state highway in Cattaraugus County, New York, in the United States. The southern terminus of the route is at an intersection with NY 394 in the hamlet of Randolph and its northern terminus is at a junction with U.S. Route 62 (US 62) in the town of Conewango. Today, NY 241 is little more than a connector between the two highways; however, when it was first assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York, it extended north to then-NY 18 in Dayton. The portion of NY 241 north of Conewango was incorporated into an extension of US 62 c. 1932, and NY 241 was truncated in the late 1940s to eliminate the overlap with US 62.
NY 241 begins at an intersection with NY 394 (Main Street) and County Route 65 (CR 65, named Weeden Road) in the hamlet of Randolph. The highway heads to the northwest, paralleling NY 394 for a short distance before heading out of Randolph into the rural regions north of the community. The highway heads northward as Conewango Road, passing (and soon paralleling) the Cardinal Hills Golf Course until the intersection with Benson Road. NY 241 continues northward, passing through farmland and soon turning to the northwest once again. The highway passes some residential homes and continues in a west-northwestward progression into the unincorporated community of Pope.
