New York State Route 305 (NY 305) is a north–south route in the Southern Tier that runs from the Pennsylvania state line in Cattaraugus County to the hamlet of Belfast in Allegany County, where it ends at NY 19. It intersects the Southern Tier Expressway (Interstate 86 or I-86 and NY 17) in Cuba.
NY 305 begins at the Pennsylvania state line as a continuation of PA 446 in the town of Portville. The designation proceeds northward as Portville-Eldred Road, paralleling a river and ponds as a two-lane rural highway. After an intersection with Barbertown Road, NY 305 enters the hamlet of Carroll and passes several residences northward. The route crosses a stream, intersecting with NY 417 (Portville-Ceres Road). NY 305 and NY 417 form a concurrency, crossing north through the hamlet of Toll Gate Corner as a two-lane residential street, entering the village of Portville. In Portville village, NY 305 turns to the northeast away from NY 417 at an intersection with Brooklyn Street. Turning north on Brooklyn, paralleling a long stretch of residences and crossing the former Bradford Division. Passing east of Chestnut Hill Cemetery, NY 305 leaves the village.
