PA 304 Truck

Pennsylvania Route 304 Truck (PA 304 Truck) is a truck route in and around Mifflinburg. Narrow streets within the borough are avoided by this designation, and a complicated intersection with Pennsylvania Route 45, which does not contain turning lanes, is bypassed. The route is concurrent with other highways for its entire length: It is cosigned with PA 104 for the first of the route, and is designated SR 3004 (Red Ridge Road) for the remainder. It is signed in the eastbound direction only, with the opposite direction signed as PA 45 Truck.
