Connecticut Route 75
Route 75 in the U.S. states of Connecticut and Massachusetts is a 17.5-mile (28.2 km) scenic route connecting the Hartford and Springfield areas. The route begins at Route 159 in the town of Windsor, Connecticut and ends at the junction of Route 159 and Route 147 in the city of Agawam, Massachusetts.
The route acquired its modern designation in the 1932 state highway renumbering, becoming a loop route off then U.S. Route 5A (modern Route 159) through the town center of Suffield. In 1950, the north end was realigned to extend into Agawam. The portion in Agawam is a municipal road and is not a state highway (i.e. not a state-maintained road).

Famous quotes containing the word route:
“By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an eidolon, named Night,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule—
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of space—out of time.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
