New York State Route 267 (NY 267) was an east–weststate highway in thewestern portion ofNew York in the United States. It extended for 7.16 miles (11.52 km) from an intersection withNY 93 in theErie County village ofAkron to a junction withNY 77 in theGenesee County hamlet of Basom. Part of NY 267 in Genesee County passed through theTonawanda Indian Reservation. The portion of NY 267 within Erie County was assignedc. 1935. NY 267 was extended east to NY 77 in Basom in the late 1930s, replacingNew York State Route 77A, a spur leading from NY 77 to the eastern edge of the Tonawanda Reservation. The Erie County segment of the route was transferred from the state ofNew York to Erie County in April 1980, leading to the total removal of the NY 267 designation in August of that year.
NY 267 began at an intersection withNY 93 in the village ofAkron in easternErie County. The route headed eastward, following John Street through downtown Akron. NY 267 broke from John Street just four blocks later. While the street continued east to serveAkron Airport, the route turned northeast to follow Bloomingdale Road out of the village. The route continued through gradually less developed areas of the town ofNewstead, intersecting withCounty Route 250 (CR 250, named Scotland Road). NY 267 crossed intoGenesee County soon afterward.[5][6]
In the Genesee County town ofAlabama, NY 267 made a slight turn to the north as it entered theTonawanda Indian Reservation. Once inside the reservation, the route remained on a north-northeasterly alignment for about 0.5 miles (0.8 km) to a junction with Parker Road. At this point, the highway turned to the east, progressing across the reservation. At an intersection with Reuben Road 1.25 miles (2.01 km) later, NY 267 turned to the north for another 0.5 miles (0.8 km) before it exited the reservation. The route continued for roughly 1 mile (1.6 km) to thehamlet of Basom, where it terminated at an intersection withNY 77.[5][6]

NY 267 was assignedc. 1935 to a routing extending fromNY 93 inAkron to theErie–Genesee county line by way of John Street and Bloomingdale Road. Farther east, the portion of Bloomingdale Road between theTonawanda Indian Reservation andNY 77 was designated as NY 77A around the same time.[2][3] NY 77A and the remainder of Bloomingdale Road within Genesee County became an extension of NY 267 in the late 1930s.[7][8] On April 1, 1980, ownership and maintenance of the portion of NY 267 within Erie County—by this point the lone state-maintained portion of the route—was transferred from the state ofNew York to Erie County as part of a highway maintenance swap between the two levels of government.[9] The NY 267 designation was removed from the entirety of its routing just over four months later on August 14, 1980.[4] The Erie County segment of the route is now CR 573 while the Genesee County section is locally maintained.[5]
