U.S. Route 30 (US 30) is the portion of an east–west highway that travels across the state of West Virginia along what was previously WV 79.
US 30 in West Virginia starts off at the corner of the Ohio River, where it immediately runs into Chester. After about 0.4miles, the highway has an interchange with West Virginia Route 2 (WV 2). The freeway portion that was carried over from Ohio ends shortly after. After an intersection with WV 8, US 30 continues into Pennsylvania. The overall length is 3.4miles. This segment of US 30 is the shortest.
The Lincoln Highway was realigned in 1927, and it was redesignated as US 30 for about 5miles in West Virginia.[2]
