New York State Route 291 (NY 291) is a state highway in Oneida County, New York, in the United States. The route extends from an intersection with NY 69 in the town of Whitestown to a junction with NY 365 in the extreme northern tip of the town of Marcy, near the hamlet of Stittville. It is a two-lane highway its entire length. NY 291 meets NY 49, the Utica–Rome Expressway, at an interchange roughly 1 mile (1.6 km) northeast of NY 69. NY 291 provides access to the Marcy Correctional Facility and Mid-State Correctional Facility, both in Marcy.
The origins of NY 291 date back to 1908, when the entirety of modern NY 291 was designated as part of legislative Route 25, which began in Marcy and ended in Albany. The portion of Route 25 south of Barneveld was designated as part of New York State Route 12C, an alternate route of NY 12 between Utica and Barneveld, in the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York. The section of NY 12C south of Whitestown was entirely overlapped with other routes while the portion north of Stittville utilized what is now NY 365. On January 1, 1970, NY 12C was replaced with an extended NY 365 from Stittville to Barneveld and NY 291 from Whitestown to Stittville.
