U.S. Route 202 (US 202) is a U.S. highway stretching from Delaware to Maine, also traveling through the states of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire. The highway has borne the number 202 since at least 1936.[1] Before this, sections of the highway were designated U.S. Route 122,[2] as it intersected US 22. Its current designation is based on its intersection with US 2 in Maine.

It follows a general southwest to northeast direction through the state, passing through or by West Chester, King of Prussia, Norristown, Montgomeryville, Doylestown, and New Hope.
