The Exton Bypass Scenic Byway covers just 5 miles of US 30 skirting south of Exton in Chester County, one of Pennsylvania's shortest designated scenic byways. It runs from the Business 30 interchange on the west to Route 202 on the east. The road is a segment of the historic Lincoln Highway, the first road built to cross the country coast to coast, from Times Square in New York City to San Francisco. Unlike the winding rural byways elsewhere in the state, this stretch is a modern, four-lane bypass built to move traffic around Exton rather than through it, so its scenic designation rests more on its Lincoln Highway heritage than on dramatic roadside views. Nearby stops include the QVC Studio Tour, the American Helicopter Museum, and Fox Leap Vineyards, giving travelers a reason to exit rather than simply pass through on the way to Philadelphia's western suburbs.
