Vermont Route 313 - Route Description

Route Description

Paralleling the Batten Kill River, NY 313 enters Vermont and becomes VT 313. The highway crosses the border in a low-level valley, passing through the areas of clearings and woodlands. The route progresses to the southeast, passing a few residences. There is a turn to the east, then north, then back to the east in progression. At the intersection with Covered Bridge Road, VT 313 enters West Arlington, Vermont, which is slightly more developed than the area surrounding it. In West Arlington, VT 313 makes a dive to the south in direction. Passing through a relatively stable environment of woodlands and clearings, the highway begins to turn to the southeast again. After a couple of turns, VT 313 passes the Arlington Recreational Park, and enters the town of Arlington, Vermont.

In Arlington, VT 7A (the Ethan Allen Highway) intersects and becomes concurrent with VT 313. The two highways turn to the south and head through downtown Arlington. East Arlington Road intersects and begins to parallel the highways as they progress southward. In the community of East Arlington, VT 313 and VT 7A split, heading to the east and south respectively. VT 313 then begins its final stretch of highway, heading through woodlands once again, and reaching its final intersection, which is with South Road. After that, VT 313 terminates at an interchange with US 7 in East Arlington. The right-of-way for VT 313 continues after the interchange to a dead end as Orvis Road.
