Route 183 is a state highway in northwestern Connecticut, running from Torrington to the Massachusetts state line in Norfolk.
Route 183 begins at the junction with Route 4 (New Harwinton Road) in the Litchfield County city of Torrington. A two-lane road through the eastern reaches of Torrington, Route 183 runs north along Torringford Street as a residential road, passing nearby Joe Ruwet Park. The route soon reaches a junction with U.S. Route 202 (US 202; named East Main Street) in the Torringford section of the city. Running northeast past Bishop Donnelly Park, the route passes the nearby middle school and enters a rural section of the town of Torrington.
Route 183 starts paralleling Route 8, a nearby freeway, which is connected via Pinewoods Road. The route runs past the Green Woods Country Club, which separates Route 183 and Route 8. Entering the town of Winchester, Route 183 winds northwest into a junction with US 44. Route 183 turns northwest onto a concurrency with US 44 and into the northern terminus of the Route 8 freeway. Now a triplex through Winchester, the routes make up the four lane South Main Street, passing through downtown.
