New England Interstate Route 32A was an alternate route of the 1920s New England Route 32 in New Hampshire, between the towns of Henniker and Bradford. The main route went directly between the two towns along the Henniker-Bradford Road. Route 32A used a more circuitous route, first heading east from Henniker to Hopkinton then north through Warner, then west to meet up with the main route again in Bradford. Route 32A was about 27 miles (43 km) long. The current designations of old Route 32A are:
- US 202 from Henniker to Hopkinton
- NH 103 from Hopkinton to Bradford.
New Hampshire decommissioned its New England Route 32 (and 32A) in the early 1930s.

“All the great speakers were bad speakers at first. Stumping it through England for seven years made Cobden a consummate debater. Stumping it through New England for twice seven trained Wendell Phillips.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“At bottom, I mean profoundly at bottom, the FBI has nothing to do with Communism, it has nothing to do with catching criminals, it has nothing to do with the Mafia, the syndicate, it has nothing to do with trust-busting, it has nothing to do with interstate commerce, it has nothing to do with anything but serving as a church for the mediocre. A high church for the true mediocre.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
