Interstate highways lead most traffic into Lancaster County (http://www.co.lancaster.pa.us/).

I-76, also known as the Pennsylvania Turnpike.

One of the most pleasant routes from the East Coast Cities is via I-78 through New Jersey to exit 13, Bethel Pennsylvania, then Route 501 south to Lancaster. It is a beautiful farmland drive, especially at sunset.

Another good routing from I-78 is exit 54A, US 222 South Hamilton Boulevard. This is also very scenic, but a faster and more direct routing.

A very nice, scenic drive that takes you through the heart of the Pennsylvania Amish Country is a connecting road between Route 30 West from Philadelphia and Old Philadelphia Pike, Newport Road. The gentle rolling hills take the road through open Amish farm land and passes by Pequea Valley High School. Not only is Newport Road a nice, refreshing, scenic road, it also bypasses all the traffic of the Lancaster Outlet areas and takes you to Old Philadelphia Pike which puts you right back on the highway portion route 30 towards York County
