New York State Route 85A (NY 85A) is an east–west state highway in Albany County, New York, in the United States. It serves as a 5.54-mile (8.92 km), two-lane alternate route of NY 85 through the town of New Scotland, running from the hamlet of New Salem to the hamlet of New Scotland. While NY 85 bypasses the village of Voorheesville to the south, NY 85A directly serves it, connecting to two state routes inside of the village limits. The route was assigned c. 1932 to its current alignment.
