Route 220 is a state route in northern Connecticut and western Massachusetts, serving the southeastern suburbs of Springfield. The route runs in an "L" pattern and connects the town of Enfield, Connecticut to the town of East Longmeadow. The route serves the Thompsonville and North Thompsonville sections of Enfield, connecting them to East Longmeadow center. In Connecticut, Route 220 is signed east-west. In Massachusetts, Route 220 is a town-maintained road and it is signed north-south.

Route 220 begins as Elm Street at an intersection with US 5 in the Thompsonville section of the town of Enfield. It heads east, intersecting I-91 (at Exit 48) after 0.4 miles (0.64 km) near Enfield Square Mall. Route 220 then shifts to use Shaker Road heading northeast for about three miles (5 km) and intersecting with Route 192 along the way. In the vicinity of the state correctional facility, Route 220 turns north along Taylor Road.
