Pennsylvania Route 24 (PA 24) is a 29-mile-long (47 km) state highway located within central Pennsylvania in the York County area. Its southern terminus is at the Mason–Dixon Line near Stewartstown, where PA 24 continues into Maryland as Maryland Route 23 (MD 23). The northern terminus is at PA 921 in Mount Wolf. The route heads north from the state line through rural areas in southern York County, intersecting PA 851 in Stewartstown and PA 216 in Winterstown. PA 24 continues north to Red Lion, where it crosses PA 74 and intersects the south end of PA 624. The route runs through suburban areas to the east of York, crossing PA 124, PA 462, and U.S. Route 30 (US 30). PA 24 continues north through rural land and reaches its end in Mount Wolf.
PA 24 was designated in 1928 to run from the Maryland border south of Stewartstown north to US 111 (Old York Road) in New Market. The route ran north to Red Lion, where it followed PA 74 northwest to York before running north along US 111 to North York and continuing north to York Haven, west to Lewisberry, and north to New Market. In the 1950s, the north end of PA 24 was cut back to Interstate 83 (I-83)/US 111 southwest of New Market. In York, the route was split into one-way pairs in the downtown area while US 111 Alternate (US 111 Alt.) ran concurrent with PA 24 between York and I-83/US 111 in North York. In the 1960s, PA 24 was rerouted to head north from Red Lion to US 30 (now PA 462) and PA 250 east of York. The former alignment became PA 74 by itself between Red Lion and York, I-83 Business (I-83 Bus.) between York and I-83 in North York, PA 181 between PA 250 (now US 30) in North York and York Haven, PA 382 between York Haven and PA 114 near Bunches, and an extended PA 114 between Bunches and New Market. PA 24 was extended north to PA 921 in Mount Wolf in the 1970s, replacing the easternmost portion of PA 250.
