7.85 miles; from Route 195 in Mansfield to I-84 in Willington. |

In the 1920s, state highway 320 followed today's Route 177, between Route 4 and US 44. The modern Route 320 was commissioned in 1963 along Ruby Road and Willington Hill Road, both town roads. My guess is the state adopted the route to provide a connector from I-84 to Storrs, in the same way Route 229 was a new spur route from I-84 to Bristol. | |

Some online maps (including Google, below) have Route 320 continuing east from the I-84 interchange along Turnpike Road to end at Route 89 in Westford. However cool this might be (and it follows a very old alignment of Route 197), it isn't true. | |
