Pennsylvania Route 332 is a state highway in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. The route runs from Pennsylvania Route 263 in Hatboro, Montgomery County east to Pennsylvania Route 32 in Yardley, Bucks County.
[edit] Route description
Pennsylvania Route 332 heads east from Pennsylvania Route 263 on Montgomery Avenue. Immediately after crossing the SEPTA R2 tracks, the route turns north on Jacksonville Road. Pennsylvania Route 332 intersects County Line Road, and it enters Warminster Township in Bucks County. The route intersects Pennsylvania Route 132 and continues north, passing along the eastern edge of the borough of Ivyland before entering Northampton Township. Pennsylvania Route 332 continues in a northeasterly direction, eventually turning east on Almshouse Road.
Almshouse Road carries Pennsylvania Route 332 east to Richboro, where it intersects Pennsylvania Route 232. Upon crossing PA 232, Pennsylvania Route 332 changes its name to Newtown Richboro Road. Pennsylvania Route 332 then forms the southern boundary of Tyler State Park and crosses the Neshaminy Creek into Newtown Township. Pennsylvania Route 332 continues east to the Newtown Bypass, a road that provides a bypass of the borough of Newtown for Pennsylvania Route 332, along with Pennsylvania Route 413 and 532.
Pennsylvania Route 332 turns south on the Newtown Bypass, forming a concurrency with Routes 413 and 532, which bypass Newtown to the west. Eventually, both routes depart the Newtown Bypass, with Pennsylvania Route 532 first turning south to Holland, then Pennsylvania Route 413, which heads south towards Langhorne. Pennsylvania Route 332 continues east by itself, with the road name changing to Newtown Yardley Road to the east of Newtown. The road enters Lower Makefield Township, where it features an interchange with Interstate 95. The route continues east to Yardley, where it is known as Afton Avenue. Pennsylvania Route 332 continues east toward Pennsylvania Route 32, which runs along the Delaware River.
