U.S. Route 62 (US 62) is a part of the U.S. Highway System that runs from the United States–Mexico border at El Paso, Texas, to Niagara Falls, New York. In the U.S. state of New York, US 62 extends 102.77 miles (165.39 km) from the New York–Pennsylvania border south of Jamestown to an intersection with New York State Route 104 (NY 104) in downtown Niagara Falls. It bypasses the city of Jamestown and serves the cities of Buffalo and Niagara Falls, along with several villages. It is the only north–south mainline U.S. highway in Western New York.
US 62 was extended into New York c. 1932 and originally overlapped the state highways that had previously been designated along its routing—namely NY 18, NY 60, NY 83, and NY 241. These overlaps were eliminated individually during the 1940s and 1960s. The last of the four overlaps, with NY 18 from Dayton to Niagara Falls, was removed c. 1962.
