State Route 303 is an east-west state highway in northern portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. Its western terminus is at U.S. Route 20 in Wakeman, and its eastern terminus is nearly 4 miles north of Newton Falls. Signage photos[2] show that the route ends at State Route 534 and is co-signed with State Route 82 (this concurrency would be less than ½ mile); however the Technical Straight Line Diagram for State Route 303 in Trumbull County shows that it technically ends at State Route 82.
State Route 303 passes through Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
