US 9 itself has its first exit with the Northway, its first junction with I-87 since Tarrytown in fact, north of NY 9P. This full cloverleaf is the main exit for Saratoga Springs. The resort town's historic downtown is ahead, past Saratoga Spa State Park and Congress Park. Here US 9, as South Broadway, begins a concurrency with NY 50 and, later, briefly, with NY 29. NY 9P completes its loop here, and another lettered route, NY 9N, the longest letter-suffixed route in the state, begins at the post office. Tacking eastward out of town, US 9 and NY 50 follow Van Dam Street until US 9 returns to a northerly course on Marion Avenue, which becomes Maple Avenue at the city limit.
