Vermont Route 215 is a state highway in northern Vermont, United States. It runs from an intersection with U.S. Route 2 in Marshfield northeast to an intersection with Vermont Route 15 in Walden. Its main function is to serve the town of Cabot, home of the famous Cabot Creamery. Cabot is a rather isolated town, and Route 215 is the only major road to pass within a few miles of the town. The entirety of VT 215 is town-maintained.
Route 215's numbering is (perhaps coincidentally) appropriate, as it is a connection between US 2 and Route 15.
Route description
Route 215 begins at an intersection with US 2 in the town of Marshfield. The road runs northeast through a very isolated area of northeastern Washington County as it enters the Lower Cabot area. As it continues northeast, it enters Cabot and directly serves the downtown area near the creamery. Route 215 continues to the northeast through more isolated area in the extreme northeast of the county, before crossing into the town of Walden in Caledonia County, ending at Route 15 shortly thereafter. Route 215 does not intersect any numbered routes between its two endpoints.
