History
In the 1920s, the route through Derby, Ansonia, and Seymour on the east bank of the Naugatuck River was designated as State Highway 200. The corresponding road on the west side was New England Route 8. In the 1932 state highway renumbering, Highway 200 was renumbered to Route 115, originally running from its current southern end at Route 34 to the intersection of Main Street and Broad Street (both part of the original Route 8). In 1936, Route 8 was relocated to River Street (modern Route 313). The former Route 8 alignment became Route 8A. In 1962, Route 8A was deleted and the Main Street portion was assigned as a northern extension of Route 115.
