Route 118 is a state highway in northwestern Connecticut, running from the borough of Litchfield via the village of East Litchfield to the town center of Harwinton. Route 118 is a scenic road at both ends. The 2.8-mile (4.5 km) section from the western terminus at the Litchfield green to the village of East Litchfield, and the 0.1-mile (0.16 km) section within the town center of Harwinton have both been designated by the state as scenic roads.

Route 118 begins at the corner of South Street and East Street in the Litchfield green at the center of the borough at an intersection with Route 63. It heads east as the southern branch of East Street, crosses the Bantam River, then intersects with Route 254 (the road to the village of Northfield). Route 118 then enters the village of East Litchfield, where there is a junction with Thomaston Road, an old alignment of Route 8 before the expressway was built. It then crosses the Naugatuck River into the town of Harwinton where it immediately has a junction with Route 8 (Exit 42). Within Harwinton, Route 118 is known as Litchfield Road. Route 118 continues for another 2.6 miles (4.2 km) as it heads towards Harwinton center, where it ends at the junction with Route 4. Litchfield Road continues beyond Harwinton center as Route 4.
