Vermont Route 153 is a state highway in southwestern Vermont, United States. It extends for 13.16 miles (21.18 km) from the New York state line at Rupert to VT 30 in Pawlet. VT 153 is entirely town-maintained and goes through Bennington and Rutland counties.
Route description
Route 153 begins at the state line in Washington County, New York as a continuation of County Route 153 (former NY 153) in the Rupert Valley. The route heads to the northeast, passing through the village of West Rupert, which is located northeast of the Big Ridge, a 2,000 feet (610 m) high mountain. Route 153 progresses farther, passing Oak Hill and turning at an intersection with Vermont Route 315 at Meetinghouse Hill. Route 153 then heads northward, intersecting local roads and parallelling the state border. Highgo Hill is passed to the west, and is only accessible via Chef Clark Road.[3]
Route 153 then edges closer to the state border, entering West Pawlet. There are a couple connector roads to New York county roads and New York State Route 22 on the other side of the border. Route 153 passes a couple of ponds and crosses the Mettawee River. The river parallels Route 153 for the rest of its length until its terminus at Vermont Route 30 in Pawlet. Vermont Route 149 (former VT 30B) is just to the north of this intersection.[3]
