Route description
Hwy 30 begins in the Rural Municipality of Snipe Lake No. 259 near the banks of the South Saskatchewan River at the main gate of the Eston Riverside Regional Park, where it heads due north for roughly 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) to make a sharp right at an intersection with Hwy 634 (which leads south to the Lancer Ferry and the village of Lancer). The highway quickly curves back due northward, heading through rural farmland for a few kilometres to enter the town of Eston, where it passes through neighborhoods on the eastern side of town along 2nd Street SE for several blocks before having an intersection with Hwy 44 (Railway Avenue) and crossing two railway lines. Leaving Eston, Hwy 30 heads through rural farmland for several kilometers, traversing a switchback at the intersection with Hwy 752 and passing through the hamlet of McMorran before entering the Rural Municipality of Kindersley No. 290. The road goes through a switchback as it travels along the western boundary of the village of Brock, where it crosses a railway line, before coming to an end a few kilometres later at a junction with Hwy 7, with the road continuing north as Hwy 657. The entire length of Hwy 30 is a paved, two-lane highway.[5]
