Pennsylvania Route 184 (designated by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation as SR 184) is an 9.70-mile (15.61 km) long state highway located in Lycoming county in Pennsylvania. The western terminus is at Route 287 in Brookside. The eastern terminus is at Steam Mill Road, just after an interchange with U.S. Route 15 in Steam Valley, a hamlet of Cogan House Township. The route was first designated as a spur from Route 84 in Brookside to U.S. Route 15 via Cogan House Road. (Route 84 was renumbered to Route 287 in 1961.[2]) Construction is currently underway on US 15 to upgrade several miles each way from its intersection with Route 184 to interstate standards. This includes a new interchange with Route 184.

Route description

Route 184 heading westbound through Beech Grove

Route 184 begins at an intersection with Route 287 in the hamlet of Brookside. The route progresses to the northeast, heading through the rural areas of Cogan House Township. Route 184 continuously winds through the woods before forming a short eastward pattern after the intersection with Corgi Cabin Lane. The highway clears of the woods and enters fields. There, the route turns to the northeast at an intersection with Harman Road, a dead-end street to a local farm. Route 184 passes a large patch of woods to the east and enters the hamlet of White Pine. In White Pine, the highway passes some residences and intersects with Lick Run Road, where the route makes an abrupt turn to the east through farms. At the intersection with Campbell Road, Route 184 turns to the north along the right-of-way of Campbell Road, while the original eastward route continues as Cogan House Road. Farms continue as the scenery for a couple miles as the highway heads north into the hamlet of Beech Grove. In Beech Grove, Route 184 makes several curves before heading eastward until the intersection with Taylor Road, where the highway turns to the northeast and enters the hamlet of Steam Valley. Through Steam Valley, Route 184 returns to the woods and starts passing numerous residences before entering the interchange with U.S. Route 15 (the Appalachian Thruway). Midway through the interchange, the road reaches the northbound on-off ramps, where Route 184 continues north past a parking lot and terminates at Steam Mill Road.[3]

Route 184 was first designated in 1928 on a different alignemnt between the intersection with its parent route, Route 84 in Brookside to Campbell Road. The route followed the current-day alignment of Cogan House Road.[4] Four years later, Route 184 was paved from Brookside to Campbell Road and from the intersection with Edwards Road to U.S. Route 15 in Steam Valley.[5] In 1989, the route was realigned onto its current alignment through Beech Grove with that was repaved by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation.[6]

In the winter of 2007, the Department of Transportation announced the construction of the new interchange between Route 15 and Route 184, as part of the construction to upgrade Route 15 into an interstate highway. The total cost for the portion from Trout Run to Buttonwood was to cost $71 million (2007 USD).[7] As part of plans, Route 184 needed to be realigned to the north to help promote local businesses including a local residences. This included moving the houses of longtime locals onto further family owned land because of the suggested design by the Fry family of a split-diamond interchange.[8] The project was completed in the fall of 2009 with a ribbon cutting ceremony on the southbound lanes.[9]

The entire route is in Lycoming County.
