State Road 130 in the U.S. state of Indiana runs 11.1 miles (17.9 km) from U.S. Route 30 in Valparaiso to U.S. Route 6 and State Road 51 in Hobart. This highway mainly follows a major rail line for its entire length. It is also called Lincoln Way (sometimes spelled "Lincolnway") for its entire length, except south of LaPorte Avenue, where it is called Sturdy Road.
State Road 130 passes through the following cities, and intersects with highways at those locations:
- Hobart — U.S. Route 6/State Road 51
- Valparaiso — State Road 149, State Road 2/U.S. Route 30 (Morthland Drive)
SR 130 south of LaPorte Avenue was at one point concurrent with SR 2. When the Valparaiso Bypass (current State Road 49) was completed, State Road 49 was routed onto the bypass, and SR 2 was routed with SR 49 south to US 30.
SR 130 is concurrent with SR 51 for one mile south of its terminus on US 6. SR 51 then goes west into downtown Hobart, and SR 130 goes southeast towards Porter County and Valparaiso.
SR 130 can be considered a local spur of US 30. This differs from other highways, such as State Road 249, which exist outside of the grid system and are numbered according to the nearest grid number available.
