In many places the canal path became the roadbed for streets, and its path can be traced by the roads which replaced it.
These include Binghamton's State Street and Chenango Street, NY Route 5, NY Route 8, NY Route 12 and NY Route 12B.
In Utica the canal bed follows next to or underneath NY Route 12B / 12, and entered the Erie Canal west of State Street.
Portions of the old channel, stone aqueducts, locks, and other structures still remain in place along its route, and are visible in several locations.
These include: between Bouckville and Solsville ; near Hamilton, NY ; north of North Fenton and west of County Road 32 ; north of Sherburne, west of NY Route 12B, and in the village of Oxford, both on Canal St and the remains of a harbor on North Washington.
The only place left with moving water is an area between Woodman ’ s Pond, near the now extinct Pecksport and the aqueduct on Canal Road, just after Bouckville, which was the summit level on the canal.
Most of these canal remnants as well as much of the original path are visible or discernable using Google Earth.
