PA Route 51 Truck
Location: Elizabeth, Pennsylvania
Existed: 1970–present

Pennsylvania Route 51 Truck is a 1⁄2-mile (0.80 km) long truck route in the Pittsburgh suburb of Elizabeth, Pennsylvania. The truck designation is only present in one direction and is actually part of a wrong-way concurrency. A cloverleaf has been established to direct traffic between Elizabeth's main street (known as Center Ave and McKeesport Road on different ends of town), but its narrow and winding design makes it difficult for trucks to access Route 51 southbound. As a result, they are directed to enter onto Route 51 northbound, cross the bridge over the Monongahela River, and use a special u-turn exit to reach southbound lanes of travel.

    They shoulda called me Little Cocaine, I was sniffing so much of the stuff! My nose got big enough to back a diesel truck in, unload it, and drive it right out again.
    Little Richard (b. 1932)
