CR 35 has three suffixed routes:
  • CR 35A- The only child route that is longer than mere tenths of a mile.

  • CR 35B- Route 35B was 0.1 mile (0.160934 km) route that began at CR 30 and ended at CR 35 along Old South Highland Avenue in Pearl River.
  • CR 35C- Route 35C is a disputed 0.1 mile (0.160934 km) route that begins at CR 35 and ends at CR 35A along Perlman Drive. The reason CR 35C is disputed is because it is not signed, but in fact is still signed CR 35A. CR 35A used to run along Perlman Drive before being extended northward along West Clarkstown Road. County maps show Perlman Drive as CR 35C.

 (I-87/I-287). At the next traffic light, CR 35A turns right, and proceeds north for the rest of its route. CR 35A is the longest child county route in Rockland County. Actually, CR 35A is the only child that is longer than one-tenth of a mile. Only as recently as the late 1990s was CR 35A extended south beyond NY 59 and north beyond the Spring Valley Market Place.

, but because the end of Leber Road is a one-way bridge it is not designated CR 36. Some Rockland County maps actually show CR 36 continuing over the bridge, crossing NY 303, and finally ending at CR 11 about a hundred feet later. However, a CR 36 end shield exists before the bridge. With Rockland County removing some of their routes in recent years, logic says CR 36 could be on the block. CR 36 is merely a side street serving a Blauvelt residential neighborhood, and it doesn't even have double yellow lines any more.
