Route Description
PA 832 begins at an intersection with PA 98 south of I-90 exit 16 in Fairview Township. The route continues east as Sterrettania Road, paralleling I-90 through Sterrettania before turning to the northeast and interchanging with I-90 at exit 18. PA 832 continues to the northeast, entering the city of Erie from the southwest. Within Erie, PA 832 intersects West 38th Street and West 32nd Street, among other roadways, before intersecting U.S. Route 20 (West 26th Street). At US 20, PA 832 switches names from Sterrettania Road to Peninsula Drive and turns to the northwest toward the Lake Erie shoreline.
North of US 20, PA 832 crosses the mainlines of both CSX Transportation and the Norfolk Southern Railway via the Arthur F. Deitsch Memorial Bridge prior to junctions with PA 5 (West 12th Street) and PA 5 Alternate (West 8th Street/West Lake Road) near the lakeshore. Unlike most north–south state routes in Erie, which terminate at PA 5 Alternate, PA 832 continues north to the lakeshore, connecting Erie to the Presque Isle State Park, located on a peninsula protruding into Lake Erie north of the city. While Peninsula Road continues north onto the peninsula and into the park, the PA 832 designation terminates at the entrance to the park.

“But however the forms of family life have changed and the number expanded, the role of the family has remained constant and it continues to be the major institution through which children pass en route to adulthood.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
“I fancy it must be the quantity of animal food eaten by the English which renders their character insusceptible of civilisation. I suspect it is in their kitchens and not in their churches that their reformation must be worked, and that Missionaries of that description from [France] would avail more than those who should endeavor to tame them by precepts of religion or philosophy.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
