Route description
Route 110 begins at the New Hampshire state line between Newfield, Maine and Wakefield, New Hampshire approximately 1/2 mile east of New Hampshire Route 153, and runs due east for 3.6 miles through West Newfield until intersecting and ending at an intersection with Route 11. Route 110 is called Wakefield Road over its entire length.
Although the connecting road to NH 153 is unnumbered, junction signage for Route 110 is present on NH 153 (with Maine-style shield, since New Hampshire has its own Route 110 which is unrelated). An eastbound reassurance shield for Route 110 is also present on the New Hampshire side. However, westbound signage clearly indicates the end of the route at the state line. Many maps erroneously depict Route 110 extending all the way to NH 153.

Western terminus of Route 110.3.60 Route 11 Eastern terminus of Route 110. History
When it was designated in 1925, Route 110 was a much longer route than it is today, stretching from Alfred to Limington. It went under major changes in 1931, with its western terminus being shifted to the New Hampshire state line and all of its eastern routing becoming part of modern Route 11, Route 4, Route 5, and U.S. Route 202, resulting in the short alignment it has today.[2]
