United States Highway 30 is an east-west United States highway that traverses the United States. The western end of the highway is at Astoria, Oregon; the eastern end is in Atlantic City, New Jersey. It has managed to avoid the decommissioning that has plagued other long haul routes such as Route 66.

After the Lincoln Highway was decommissioned, much of it became part of US 30. Many parts of this highway are still referred to as the Lincoln Highway.
