The road runs through agricultural areas with some homes, turning northeast and crossing the wooded Conneaut Creek into Springfield Township. In this area, the route becomes Summerville Road and runs north through a mix of farmland and woodland with occasional residences, crossing the Canadian National's Bessemer Subdivision railroad line at-grade. Farther north, PA 215 comes to a diamond interchange with I-90. After this, the route heads through more rural areas as an unnamed road and reaches the residential community of East Springfield.
