Route description
PA 830 begins at an interchange with I-80 in Washington Township, Jefferson County, heading northwest on two-lane undivided Sensor Road. The road heads through forested areas, heading through an area of fields before curving northeast through more wooded areas on Airport Road. The route heads to the east and runs between woodland to the north and farms to the south as it passes to the north of DuBois Regional Airport. PA 830 heads east-southeast through a mix of farmland and woodland with some homes, continuing east into more wooded areas of residential development and passing through Rockdale. The road turns to the southeast and runs through more forests with some fields and homes, heading south to pass over I-80. The route passes through Red Mill and turns southeast into more forested areas with some residences, crossing into Falls Creek and becoming Washington Avenue. PA 830 passes several homes, turning to the east onto Main Street and coming to an intersection with the northern terminus of PA 950. Following this, the road passes more residences and businesses.[2][3] PA 830 enters Clearfield County and passes through more of Falls Creek before heading into Sandy Township, where it becomes Slab Run Road and crosses a Buffalo and Pittsburgh Railroad line immediately north of a junction with another Buffalo and Pittsburgh Railroad line. The route continues to the north of the railroad tracks, running through wooded areas with some commercial development as it comes to its eastern terminus at US 219.[2][4]
