'''[[Pennsylvania Route 29]]''' is a 112 mile north-south state highway that runs through eastern Pennsylvania.

PA 29 runs from [[U.S. Route 30]] in [[Malvern, Pennsylvania|Malvern]] to [[Brookdale, Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania|Brookdale]] where it continues eastward as [[New York State Route 7]].

'''[[Pennsylvania Route 65]]''' (abbreviated '''PA 65''') is a major 51 [[mile]] (83 [[kilometre|km]]) long [[List of State Routes in Pennsylvania|state highway]] located in western [[Pennsylvania]], [[United States]].

PA 65 is similar in its purpose to [[Pennsylvania Route 18|PA Route 18]] and [[Pennsylvania Route 51|PA Route 51]], both of which run parallel to PA 65 at one point or another; however, the three routes pass through different cities for most of their respective alignments.

Commissioned in 1928, PA 145 is the main north-south route into [[Allentown, Pennsylvania]], the third-largest city in [[Pennsylvania]]. In [[Whitehall Township, PA|Whitehall Township]], a seven mile portion of PA 145 is known as '''MacArthur Road'''. MacArthur Road is almost entirely divided; between US 22 and Eberhart Road, it is up to six lanes wide with slip ramps.

'''[[State Route 1002 (Lehigh County, Pennsylvania)|State Route 1002]]''' '''(SR 1002)''', locally known as '''Tilghman Street''' and '''Union Boulevard''', is a major {{convert|13.7|mi|km|1|sp=us|lk=on|abbr=on}} long east-west [[road]] in the [[Allentown-Bethlehem-Easton metropolitan area]] of the [[U.S. state]] of [[Pennsylvania]]. The majority of the roadway is the former alignment of [[U.S. Route 22 (Pennsylvania)|U.S. Route 22]], maintained by the [[Pennsylvania Department of Transportation]] as a [[Quadrant Route (Pennsylvania)|Quadrant Route]], and is not signed except on small white segment markers.

Tilghman Street begins at [[Pennsylvania Route 100]]&nbsp;in [[Fogelsville, Pennsylvania|Fogelsville]], though SR 1002&nbsp;continues west on Main Street (also old US 22) to the intersection of Church Street (SR 3014). It becomes Union Boulevard just east of the bridge over the [[Lehigh River]] in [[Allentown, PA|Allentown]]; SR 1002&nbsp;ends at the [[interchange (road)|interchange]] with [[Pennsylvania Route 378]]&nbsp;in [[Bethlehem, PA|Bethlehem]]. Union Boulevard continues over [[Monocacy Creek]], which forms the border between [[Lehigh County, Pennsylvania|Lehigh]] and [[Northampton County, Pennsylvania|Northampton]] Counties, and ends in downtown Bethlehem. 

Today, the highway attracts more than the average traffic for roads in the [[Lehigh Valley]]. An average of 21,018&nbsp;vehicles use it in [[South Whitehall Township, Pennsylvania|South Whitehall Township]] and 21,706&nbsp;in [[Allentown (PA)|Allentown]] each day.

[[Image:PA-39.svg|88x70px|right]]
'''[[Pennsylvania Route 39]]&nbsp;'''('''PA 39''') is a {{convert|17.68|mi|km|2|sp=us|lk=on|abbr=on}}-long, east-west, [[List of State Routes in Pennsylvania|state highway]] in [[Dauphin County, Pennsylvania|Dauphin County]] of the [[U.S. state]] of [[Pennsylvania]].  It is designated from North Front Street in [[Susquehanna Township, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania|Susquehanna Township]], to [[U.S. Route 322|US 322]]&nbsp;and [[U.S. Route 422|US 422]]&nbsp;in the [[Hummelstown, Pennsylvania|Hummelstown]]/[[Hershey, Pennsylvania|Hershey]] area. 

PA 39&nbsp;is one of the few state routes to end on a non-numbered road. This exists because North Front Street is the decommissioned route for [[U.S. Route 22 (Pennsylvania)|US 22]]/US 322&nbsp;(as well as [[Pennsylvania Route 14|PA 14]], [[U.S. Route 11|US 11]] and [[U.S. Route 15|US 15]]).

From the western terminus to [[Interstate 81 (Pennsylvania)|Interstate 81]], PA 39&nbsp;is known as '''Linglestown Road'''. Linglestown Road is mostly a two lane road running east–west through the northern portions of Dauphin County. 

From Interstate 81&nbsp;to Hersheypark Drive, PA&nbsp;39&nbsp;is known as '''Hershey Road''' turning south, but keeping the east-west signage.  When becoming '''Hersheypark Drive''', PA 39&nbsp;is routed opposite to its alignment before reaching the eastern terminus.

===August===
[[Image:PA-222.svg|88x70px|right]]
'''[[Pennsylvania Route 222]]''' is a {{convert|4.49|mi|km|2|sp=us|lk=on|abbr=on}}-long [[state highway]] contained entirely in [[Allentown, Pennsylvania|Allentown]], [[Lehigh County, Pennsylvania|Lehigh County]], [[Pennsylvania]] and its immediate suburbs mostly along '''Hamilton Boulevard'''. The route, in center city Allentown, is aligned along West Hamilton, West Linden, and West Walnut Streets. The route is referenced as '''SR 2006''', under the [[Pennsylvania State Route|Local Referencing System]].

The southern terminus of the route is at [[Interstate 78 (Pennsylvania)|Interstate 78]] and [[Pennsylvania Route 309]] in [[Dorneyville, Pennsylvania|Dorneyville]], where the [[easement|right-of-way]] of PA 222 changes designation to [[U.S. Route 222]]. The northern terminus is [[Pennsylvania Route 145]] in Allentown.

===September/October===
[[Image:PA-31.svg|88x70px|right]]
'''[[Pennsylvania Route 31]]''' is a 74&nbsp;mile long [[state highway]] located in [[Western Pennsylvania]], paralleling [[U.S. Route 30 (Pennsylvania)|U.S. Route 30]] and the [[Pennsylvania Turnpike]] for most of its length.  The designation begins at PA 136 near West Newton and ends at US 30 near Bedford.

===November===
[[Image:PA-191.svg|88x70px|right]]
'''[[Pennsylvania Route 191]]''' is a {{convert|111.54|mi|km|2|sp=us|lk=on|abbr=on}}-long [[state highway]] in the [[U.S. state]] of [[Pennsylvania]]. The route, a major non-freeway corridor connecting the [[Lehigh Valley]] to [[The Poconos]] in eastern Pennsylvania, is designated from [[U.S. Route 22 in Pennsylvania|U.S. Route 22]] in [[Bethlehem Township, Pennsylvania|Brodhead]] to the [[New York-Pennsylvania border|New York state line]] over the [[Delaware River]] at [[Hancock (village), New York|Hancock, New York]]. 

Commissioned in 1961, the route replaced the [[Pennsylvania Route 12 (1930s)|PA 12]] and [[Pennsylvania Route 90|PA 90]] numbers that were in place from the late 1920s to the 1960s. From 1961 to 1976, PA 191 was routed south of US 22 through [[Bethlehem, PA|Bethlehem]] and terminated at [[Pennsylvania Route 309]] in [[Center Valley, Pennsylvania|Center Valley]]. [[Pennsylvania Route 378]] replaced the designation from Center Valley to the [[Lehigh River]] crossing in Bethlehem.
