Route Description
U.S. Route 202 enters Connecticut at Danbury with U.S. Route 6 and climbs up onto I-84 at Exit 4, which had just been joined by the north–south US 7 at the previous interchange, making a four-way concurrency. US 7 and 202 split from I-84 and US 6 at Exit 7. They remain a freeway for a short stretch but then 202 splits off to a two-lane road in Southern Brookfield as it follows Federal Road. The US 7 freeway continues for another 2 miles (3.2 km) before it rejoins US 202 in Northern Brookfield. The now rejoined US 7 and 202 approach New Milford, in bucolic Litchfield County, where they once again split.
US 202 continues through Torrington and on to Cherry Brook, where it then runs concurrently with US 44 for several miles before turning northward at Avon. For the run to the state line, US 202 runs concurrently with Route 10.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“The route through childhood is shaped by many forces, and it differs for each of us. Our biological inheritance, the temperament with which we are born, the care we receive, our family relationships, the place where we grow up, the schools we attend, the culture in which we participate, and the historical period in which we live—all these affect the paths we take through childhood and condition the remainder of our lives.”
—Robert H. Wozniak (20th century)
“Do not require a description of the countries towards which you sail. The description does not describe them to you, and to- morrow you arrive there, and know them by inhabiting them.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
