There is a traffic light at East 233 Street just south of the city line. Maintaining this road is clearly not a priority for NYCDOT, so an oversized street name sign would be too much to ask for, even though this is a state route.

Welcome to Westchester County and the City of Mount Vernon! Provost Avenue becomes South Third Avenue at the city line. South Third Avenue is locally maintained by the city and doesn't even have a yellow line down the middle. Yes, this actually is a state route, even though the only way to know is from a single reassurance shield.
