This highway is considerably longer than the eastern segment of US 2 (although considerably shorter than the combined segments of US 2), making it one of several three-digit U.S. highways to be longer than their parent routes.

Massachusetts
Unlike elsewhere in New England, US 202 is posted as a north–south highway in Massachusetts, as the highway runs mostly in those directions for its length through the state.
US 202 and Massachusetts Route 10, Route 10 enter the Bay State at the "Congamond, Massachusetts, Congamond Notch" in Southwick, Massachusetts, Southwick, a southward jog in the state line that includes Congamond Lake. North of Westfield, Massachusetts, Westfield, US 202 turns eastward toward Holyoke, Massachusetts, Holyoke, crosses the Connecticut River on the Joseph E. Muller Bridge and crosses the South Hadley Falls Interchange, traversing Massachusetts Route 116, MA 116 and Massachusetts Route 33, MA 33 toward Belchertown, Massachusetts, Belchertown. After crossing Massachusetts Route 9, MA 9, it then heads north along the west side of the Quabbin Reservoir through New Salem, Massachusetts, New Salem toward Athol, Massachusetts, Athol. This section of US 202 has been dubbed the Daniel Shays Highway, named for a Revolutionary War veteran who Shays' Rebellion, led an insurrection against the state government of Massachusetts. US 202 meets Massachusetts Route 2 at Orange, Massachusetts, Orange, and runs along the two-lane freeway to Phillipston, Massachusetts, Phillipston. There, it diverges to the north again as a two-lane road.

The roadway reaches its closest point to the reservoir itself at the crossing of the Swift River, at the Shutesbury/New Salem town line. Access to the west side of the Quabbin Reservation is made through multiple gates in the three towns. There is no public access, however, to the Prescott Peninsula.
New Hampshire

It heads north, through Rindge, New Hampshire, Rindge, Jaffrey, New Hampshire, Jaffrey, and Peterborough, New Hampshire, Peterborough, to Hillsborough, New Hampshire, Hillsborough, where it turns eastward along a concurrency with New Hampshire Route 9. The span of the road between Hillsborough and Hopkinton, New Hampshire, Hopkinton, which passes through Henniker, New Hampshire, Henniker, is among the most deadly sections of roadway in the state. At Concord, New Hampshire, the state capital, US 202 heads north and picks up a concurrency with U.S. Route 3, US 3 for a short time, and then turns eastward again along Interstate 393, a freeway spur that also carries U.S. Route 4, US 4. The freeway ends short of Chichester, New Hampshire, Chichester, and NH 9 rejoins the two-lane concurrency along with US 4 and 202.
At Northwood, New Hampshire, Northwood, US 202 and NH 9 leave US 4.

US 202 leaves the turnpike two miles (3 km) before the state line at East Rochester, New Hampshire, East Rochester.
Maine
US 202 is posted as an east–west highway in Maine.
The highway enters the state by crossing the Salmon Falls River at Lebanon, Maine, South Lebanon and bridges the Mousam River in Sanford, Maine, Sanford. The highway then passes through Alfred, Maine, Alfred, Waterboro, Maine, Waterboro and Hollis, Maine, Hollis before crossing the Saco River at Buxton, Maine, Salmon Falls. The highway passes through Gorham, Maine, Gorham and crosses the Presumpscot River into South Windham, Maine, South Windham. There is a rotary with U.S. Route 302 at Windham, Maine, Foster's Corner and an interchange with Interstate 95 in Maine, I-95 at Gray, Maine, Gray. The highway parallels I-95 through New Gloucester, Maine, New Gloucester to Auburn, Maine, Auburn and crosses the Androscoggin River into Lewiston, Maine, Lewiston, passing near the campus of Bates College. A very short stretch through the latter two cities is four-lane highway, but most of its length in the Pine Tree State consists of two-lane road. Its final miles west of Hampden, Maine, Hampden, including the short overlay on I-395, and concurrency with US 1A also include four-laned segments.
The highway passes through Greene, Maine, Greene, Monmouth, Maine, Monmouth, and Winthrop, Maine, Winthrop concurrently with State Route 11 (Maine), Maine Route 11 and State Route 100 (Maine), Maine Route 100, and becomes concurrent with State Route 17 (Maine), State Route 17 at Manchester, Maine, Manchester. US 202 runs concurrently with U.S. Route 201 as it crosses the Kennebec River at Augusta, Maine, Augusta, and shortly thereafter it picks up State Route 3 (Maine), State Route 3 and Maine State Route 9, State Route 9. US 202 then ends at I-395 and SR 15 just a half mile east of US 2 and a half mile west of US 1A Bus in Bangor, Maine. I-395's junction with US 1A just southeast of the eastern terminus of US 202 is just two miles south of central Bangor.
History
U.S. Route 122 was created in 1926, connecting US 22 (NJ), US 22 at Whitehouse Station, New Jersey, with Wilmington, Delaware. It was extended to Haverstraw, New York in 1931 and became part of US 202 in 1934.
US 202 was approved by AASHO in June 1934; the route approved was , from Bangor, Maine, to State Road, Delaware, south of Wilmington. In 1964, AASHO approved a request by Delaware to eliminate the portion of US 202 between its intersection with I-295 in Farnhurst, Delaware, Farnhurst and State Road; that stretch was carrying US 13/40/301. US 202 was later shortened so that it ended at I-95 just north of Wilmington. Then in 1984, the route numbering committee approved extending US 202 from there to its intersection with US 13/US 40 in Basin Corner, near New Castle, Delaware, New Castle. This intersection is US 202's current terminus.
US 202's path passes near the sites of various important American Revolutionary War, Revolutionary War battles in Delaware and Pennsylvania, such as Cooch's Bridge, near Newark, Delaware; Brandywine Battlefield, Brandywine, near Philadelphia; and Valley Forge. In New Hampshire, US 202 passes by a historical marker in Antrim, New Hampshire, Antrim commemorating the last surviving soldier of the Revolutionary War.
In Pennsylvania in the early 1960s, a four-lane
expressway

* Controlled-access highway, the highest-grade type of highway with access ramps, lane markings, etc., for high-speed traffic.

, the Piedmont Expressway, was proposed that would follow the US 202 corridor. The expressway was to be long, and would cost approximately $146 million. It was to serve as an outer beltway around the Philadelphia area. The project was ultimately cancelled. In its place, the Route 202 Parkway Trail was built. The trail is in length. The trail is ultimately expected to connect to the East Coast Greenway via the Neshaminy Creek Trail.
Construction began in November 2008 on a parkway project between Pennsylvania Route 63 in Lower Gwynedd and the existing cloverleaf interchange at the US 202 bypass and PA 611 near Doylestown. This parkway was planned to consist of a four-lane stretch between Route 63 and Pennsylvania Route 463 and a two-lane parkway the rest of the way that bypasses the Borough (Pennsylvania), boroughs of Chalfont, Pennsylvania, Chalfont and New Britain, Pennsylvania, New Britain. The parkway opened on December 3, 2012.
US 202 originally ended at its junction with US 2/US 1A in Bangor, Maine. In the late 1980s, however, the section of US 202 between I-395 and US 2 was removed from US 202's official routing. Officially, US 202 ends at I-395's exit 3. However, signs designating US 202's termination at US 2 in downtown Bangor, at the corner of Main Street and Hammond Street, still stand today. That intersection is still seen as US 202's end.
