| History: | The only Interstate business route that originates from Interstate 83 for its entire length, and the only two-digit one located within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Construction on the section from Interstate 83 to Country Club Road began in 1958 and finished one year later. However, the designation would not be signed until 1961. The original route had it traveling George Street for its entire southbound path, but northbound traffic turned at East Jackson Street then followed South and North Duke Street, and then East North Street to rejoin George Street. The designation was moved completely to George Street in 2003 when it was made two-way. In May 2003, PennDOT began rehabilitating the section from Interstate 83 at Exit 15 to Country Club Road. Not only widening and realignment of the ramps at Interstate 83 with construction of a ramp from southbound Business Loop Interstate 83 to northbound Interstate 83, but also resurfacing the highway was part of the project. The project concluded on December 6, 2006, at a final cost of $58 million. |
