Special routes of U.S. Route 30
Highway system

Several special routes of U.S. Route 30 (US 30) exist. In order from west to east, they are as follows.

St. Helens business loop

LocationSt. Helens, Oregon
Existed2012–present

U.S. Highway 30 Business (US 30 Bus.) in St. Helens, Oregon, uniquely uses "Interstate Business Loop" shields.[1] This route was designated and is maintained by the local government and does not appear in the official state highways list unlike other business routes.[2]

Portland alternate route

Alternate plate.svg

U.S. Highway 30 Alternate

LocationPortlandTroutdale, Oregon
Existed1930s–1960s

U.S. Highway 30 Alternate (US 30 Alt.) was an alternate of US 30 from Portland to Troutdale, Oregon. The route began at US 30 at the intersection of Burnside Street and Sandy Boulevard and ran along Burnside Street, Gilham Avenue, Thorburn Street, Washington Street, and Stark Street (alternately known as Baseline Road due to being the baseline of the Willamette Stone), before rejoining US 30 at the intersection of Stark and Crown Point Highway.[3][4] It stemmed from the desire by the city of Gresham to be connected to US 30. The route existed in maps from the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s but has long since been deleted.

Portland business loop

Business plate.svg

U.S. Highway 30 Business

LocationPortland, Oregon
Length5.56 mi[5] (8.95 km)

U.S. Highway 30 Business (US 30 Bus.) was a 5.56-mile-long (8.95 km)[5] business route for US 30 in eastern Portland, Oregon, running along Burnside Street and Sandy Boulevard. Unlike a standard business route, neither end was at US 30—the west end was at Oregon Route 99E (OR 99E; Martin Luther King Boulevard and Grand Avenue; Pacific Highway East) at the east end of the Burnside Bridge and the east end was at US 30 Bypass (Northeast Portland Highway) at the Interstate 205 (I-205) interchange. It crossed US 30, which is concurrent with I-84, at around its midpoint. The whole route was the Sandy Boulevard Highway No. 59 until July 10, 2003, when it was given to the city (along with an adjacent part of OR 99E a month later).[6] The US 30 Bus. designation was removed from what had become a city street on July 5, 2007.[7]

Though the west end was just south of an interchange with US 30/I-84, there are no ramps pointing in the correct direction. The reason for this strange end is that US 30 originally exited I-84 there, ran south on OR 99E, and then turned west onto the Burnside Bridge through downtown. (It continued along Burnside Street, 18th Avenue/19th Avenue, Vaughn Street, Wardway Street, and St. Helens Road.) When US 30 was realigned to use I-5 and I-405 around the north side of downtown, US 30 Bus. remained the same (except for a one-block extension west from OR 99E northbound, resulting in a milepost of -0.05 for the west end at OR 99E southbound).

Major intersections
The entire route was in Portland, Multnomah County.

Portland bypass route

By-pass plate.svg

U.S. Highway 30 Bypass

LocationPortland, Oregon

U.S. Highway 30 Bypass (US 30 Byp.) serves as a bypass of Portland, Oregon, following several streets through the city's northern neighborhoods. It is designated as the Northeast Portland Highway No. 123 by the Oregon state government.[8]

The bypass route terminates to the west at US 30 in northwest Portland and crosses the Willamette River on the St. Johns Bridge. It travels northeast through Cathedral Park on Philadelphia Avenue, Ivanhoe Street, and Richmond Avenue, before turning east onto Lombard Street. The route follows Lombard Street across Portland's northern residential neighborhoods, intersecting OR 99W, I-5, and OR 99E. Near Portland International Airport, it dips southeast onto Killingsworth Street before an interchange with I-205. The route then leaves Portland on Sandy Boulevard and continues through Fairview, before reaching its eastern terminus at an interchange with I-84 and US 30 in Wood Village.[9]

US 30 Byp. was established in the 1930s and designated as a state highway in 1937.[10] The bypass route originally ended at the intersection of Killingsworth Street and Sandy Boulevard in eastern Portland, as the latter carried US 30.[11] In 1955, US 30 was relocated to the new Banfield Expressway (now I-84), and US 30 Byp. was extended along its former alignment to Wood Village.[12][13] Portions of the bypass on Lombard Street were widened to four lanes in 1965 by eliminating on-street parking.[14]

Burley–Granger southern route

U.S. Route 30S

LocationBurley, IdahoGranger, Wyoming
Existed1926–1970s

U.S. Route 30S (US 30S) was initially a split route, and later an alternate route, of US 30 between Burley, Idaho, and Granger, Wyoming. US 30S followed the general route of today's I-84 across Idaho and western Utah and I-80 across eastern Utah and Wyoming. The route was decommissioned in the 1970s.

In the initial proposals for the United States Numbered Highway System, all of US 30 was to follow the Lincoln Highway, with the western terminus at Salt Lake City, Utah. The Lincoln Highway Association was upset as refinements to the initial proposal modified the route of US 30 to break from the Lincoln Highway in Wyoming and proceed to the Pacific Northwest, as they were assured that the Lincoln Highway would have a single numerical designation. Utah was upset at these modifications, as they would completely remove the US 30 routing in that state. Wyoming, Nevada, Idaho, and Utah all made conflicting proposals for the route. As a compromise, a split route was approved.[15] In the approved U.S. Numbered Highway System numbering plan in 1926, US 30 split between Idaho and Wyoming. US 30N, the northern route, passed directly from Wyoming to Idaho, while a southern route entered Utah.[16] Eventually, the northern route became mainline US 30, leaving US 30S as an alternate route.

In the state of Utah's route logs, US 30S is acknowledged as late as 1970 in numerous highway transfer resolutions as segments of I-80 and I-80N were completed. However, all references to US 30S are gone from the state's highway resolutions by the time the state requested a designation change of I-80N to its modern designation of I-84 in 1977.[17]

In all three states, the freeway replacements used shorter straighter alignments compared to the former US 30S; some small towns were bypassed when the two-lane roads were replaced with freeways. A significant case is at the Idaho state line, where I-84 runs several miles to the east of the former US 30S. Portions of the former alignment of US 30S in this area are now designated Idaho State Highway 81, Utah State Route 42 (SR-42), and SR-30. Another significant deviation is at the eastern terminus of US 30S, where I-80 was routed several miles south of Granger, bypassing the town.

Cedar Rapids emergency route

Emergency plate.svg

U.S. Highway 30 Emergency

LocationCedar Rapids, Iowa
Existed1985–present

U.S. Highway 30 Emergency (US 30 Emergency) is an emergency bypass of a segment of the US 30 freeway bypass of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Since the Cedar Rapids bypass of US 30 was completed in 1985, on occasion, traffic has had to be rerouted off the road. The bypass's proximity to the Union Pacific Railroad mainline resulted in an elevated roadway between Edgewood Road and Sixth Street Southwest. When strong winds come from the south, fog produced by an Archer Daniels Midland plant adjacent to the highway billows over the road making driving dangerous. The Iowa Department of Transportation set up an emergency detour from Edgewood Road Southwest north to 16th Avenue Southwest east to 6th Street Southwest back to US 30. The frequency of fog-related detours has decreased in recent years due to improved technology and the plant's expansion and relocation of cooling towers away from the highway.[23]

In Van Wert, US 30 split into the more direct route of US 30N and the less direct US 30S, merging back together in Mansfield. US 30S lasted until November 1973 when what was US 30N became the mainline of US 30.[31][32] US 30S was numbered in the 1920s to avoid conflict with local business owners worried about the diversion of traffic from their shops along the southern route.[33]

The whole of old US 30S in Ohio is now State Route 309.

U.S. Route 30 Business (US 30 Bus.) is a three-mile (4.8 km) business loop through the borough of Bedford, Pennsylvania. In 1970, US 30 became a freeway around the town, to avoid congestion for travelers along the Pennsylvania Turnpike or US 220 (today also I-99), a pair of area freeways from which Bedford was a major travel stop. After the creation of the bypass, the original path of US 30 along Pitt Street became a business route, traveling as a narrow two-lane stretch through the town, with a four-lane segment near some light industrial development before its eastern terminus.

U.S. Route 30 Business (US 30 Bus.) is a two-mile (3.2 km) business loop through the borough of Everett, Pennsylvania. In 1982, a freeway bypass was constructed around the town because of its low-speed limits and lack of opportunities for highway widening. As a result, the original alignment of US 30 became a business route. It is two lanes through the small, crowded town. Near the eastern edge of the routing, alternate third passing lines are provided, as the road traverses a county park and a golf course.

U.S. Route 30 Business (US 30 Bus.) is an 18.79-mile (30.24 km) business route of US 30 in Chester County, Pennsylvania. The route follows the former alignment of US 30 between Sadsbury and East Whiteland townships, passing through Coatesville, Downingtown, and Exton. US 30 follows a freeway bypass between these two points.[38][39] The present alignment of US 30 Bus. was originally part of a turnpike called the Philadelphia and Lancaster Turnpike that was completed in 1794.[40][41] The state took over the turnpike in the beginning of the 20th century.[41] In 1913, present-day US 30 Bus. was incorporated into the Lincoln Highway, an auto trail that ran from San Francisco to New York City.[42] The Lincoln Highway through Pennsylvania became Pennsylvania Route 1 (PA 1) in 1924.[43][44] US 30 was designated concurrent with PA 1 west of Philadelphia in 1926, with the PA 1 designation removed two years later.[44][16][45][46][47] US 30 was widened into a multilane road through Chester County in the 1930s.[48] In 1963, US 30 was moved to a freeway bypass around Coatesville and Downingtown, with US 30 Bus. designated onto the former alignment of US 30.[49][50] In 1995, US 30 Bus. was extended east when US 30 was extended to bypass Exton.[51][52][53]

Existed1928–1950

U.S. Route 30 Bypass (US 30 Byp.) was a bypass route of a section of US 30 between Bryn Mawr and Philadelphia in Pennsylvania. It was also known as U.S. Route 30 Alternate (US 30 Alt.) in Philadelphia. The route began at US 30 in Bryn Mawr and headed southeast on County Line Road, forming the border between Delaware County to the southwest and Montgomery County to the northeast. US 30 Byp. fully entered Delaware County and continued through suburban areas as Haverford Road. The road curved into Montgomery County, where it passed through Penn Wynne, before it crossed into Philadelphia at the US 1/US 13 Byp. (City Avenue) intersection, where it became Haverford Avenue. The bypass route continued east along Haverford Avenue and Lansdowne Avenue, reaching its eastern terminus at another intersection with US 30.[55] Pennsylvania Route 201 (PA 201) was originally designated along Haverford Road and Haverford Avenue by 1928, running between US 30 (Lancaster Pike) in Bryn Mawr and US 30 (Lancaster Avenue) in Philadelphia.[56][57] US 30 Byp. was cosigned with PA 201 by 1940, continuing east from PA 201's eastern terminus along Lancaster Avenue, then becoming concurrent with US 1/US 13 on Powelton Avenue, 31st/32nd Streets, and Spring Garden Street before rejoining US 30 across the Schuylkill River at Eakins Oval.[58] By 1950, PA 201 was decommissioned.[59] In the 1950s, the eastern terminus of US 30 Byp. was rerouted along Lansdowne Avenue to end at US 30.[55] US 30 Byp. was decommissioned in the 1960s.[60]
