On entering Colchester, it continues north and northeast, as Westchester Road intersecting with Route 16 in the village of Westchester. After crossing the Jeremy River, it enters the village of North Westchester, where it has an interchange with Route 2 (at Exit 16) and then terminates 0.1-mile (0.16 km) later at an intersection with Old Hartford Road (an old alignment of Route 2) at the town line with Hebron.[1]
