The S.R.
0424, Section 390 Hazleton Beltway Extension project seeks to provide secondary
and emergency access between I-81 and Humboldt Industrial Park, as well as
additional incident management for local roadways along the I-81. Specifically,
the S.R. 0424, Section 390 project involves an extension of S.R. 0424 from the
I‑81/Exit 141 Interchange to Humboldt Industrial Park (HIP) in Hazle Township,
Luzerne County. The approximately 1.1-mile long extension would involve the
construction of a four-lane roadway from the current termination of the beltway
just west of I-81 to Commerce Drive.
