State Route 302 (SR 302) is a north–south state highway in northeast Ohio, a U.S. state. State Route 302 has its southern terminus at a signalized intersection with State Route 83 in the city of Wooster. The northern terminus of the highway is at a T-intersection with the concurrency of U.S. Route 250 and State Route 60 in the village of Savannah.
Along its way, State Route 302 travels through portions of Wayne and Ashland Counties. There is no part of this highway that is included within the National Highway System, a network of routes deemed most important for the nation's economy, mobility and defense.
State Route 302 was designated in 1932. When it was established, State Route 302 was a spur route that started at its present intersection with Silver Road west of Wooster. At the time, U.S. Route 250 entered this intersection from the west along Silver Road, and departed to the southeast along present State Route 302. From there, State Route 302 ran along its present alignment northwest to the hamlet of Lattasburg, where it came to an end at its intersection with what is today the southern terminus of State Route 301. In 1932, the intersecting roadway in Lattasburg was not a state route. Three years after its inception, State Route 302 was extended to the northwest along its current alignment to a new northern terminus at State Route 89 just south of Polk. Then, in 1937, State Route 302 was extended again to the northwest, this time to its present northern terminus at the U.S. Route 250/State Route 60 concurrency in Savannah.
