Route description
State Highway 30 serves as an east–west route between Pipestone, Slayton, St. James, Stewartville, Chatfield, and Rushford.
Highway 30 parallels U.S. Highway 14 and Interstate Highway 90 throughout its route.
The Pipestone National Monument is located immediately north of Highway 30 in Pipestone.
Lake Shetek State Park is located near Highway 30 in Murray County on the shore of Lake Shetek. The park is located immediately north of the town of Currie and northeast of Slayton.
Highway 30 passes through the Richard J. Dorer Memorial Hardwood State Forest in Olmsted and Fillmore counties.
History
State Highway 30 was authorized in 1933.
The section of Highway 30 between the South Dakota state line to State Highway 4 near St. James was originally designated as old State Highway 47 from 1934 to 1963. This section was renumbered 30 in 1963.
In 1940, only the western segment of Highway 30 was paved. In the 1950s, the central portions of Highway 30 were still gravel. Highway 30 was paved in its entirety by 1963.
Future
There are plans to reroute the highway into the City of Rochester, as seen in the Rochester International Airport Area Plan [3]
