What I mentioned would be the inner ring/loop (what most would think of as Buffalo's core or inner city), and then the second ring/loop would would be the one you've noticed. I forget NY-179 is also known as Mile Strip Expressway, a West-East connector for the southern suburbs.
Good eye, Yuri!
I'm glad all of Buffalo's proposed highways never got built. The city would have been cut up so much more than it is.
'Concept 5' plan from around 1970 when the Buffalo MSA hit its peak of 1.35 million.
