Etchberger Memorial Highway, in honor ofRichard Etchberger.[7] Following this interchange, the road heads northeast through more rural areas, reaching a partial cloverleaf interchange withPA 61 in a business area that includes a 250,000-square-foot (23,000 m2)Cabela's store. Past PA 61, I-78/US 22 comes to a bridge over theReading Blue Mountain and Northern Railroad'sReading Division line and theSchuylkill River. Upon crossing the river, I-78/US 22 enters the borough ofHamburg and passes through residential areas, coming to a diamond interchange at North 4th Street that serves Hamburg. The road leaves Hamburg and heads through rural areas, curving to the east. Farther east, the parallel Blue Mountain ridge heads further north from the freeway. I-78/US 22 comes to a partial cloverleaf interchange withPA 143 north of the borough ofLenhartsville. The CMSgt. Richard L. Etchberger Memorial Highway name for I-78/US 22 ends at this interchange. Past this interchange, the road crossesMaiden Creek. Farther east, the freeway reaches a diamond interchange withPA 737 south ofKrumsville. The road continues east through rural land with some nearby development.[4][5]
I-78/US 22 entersLehigh County, where it becomes the Walter J. Dealtrey Memorial Highway[8] and continues east into theLehigh Valley, passing north ofNew Smithville. The road passes south of warehouses and comes to a diamond interchange withPA 863. Following this interchange, the freeway heads to the south of more warehouses and runs through more rural areas. I-78/US 22 runs between farm fields to the north and warehouses and industrial development to the south before it comes to a cloverleaf interchange withPA 100 inFogelsville. After the PA 100 interchange, the freeway widens to six lanes and heads east through industrial areas, coming to a bridge over Norfolk Southern Railway'sC&F Secondary railroad line before curving northeast. InKuhnsville, US 22 splits from I-78 at an eastbound exit and westbound entrance by heading northeast on a four-lane freeway named theLehigh Valley Thruway.[4][5]
Upon splitting from I-78, US 22 runs east-northeast through developed areas and comes to a partial interchange withTilghman Street that serves the communities ofCetronia and Kuhnsville. A short distance later, the freeway reaches the Lehigh Valley interchange withI-476 (Pennsylvania Turnpike Northeast Extension), which is a double trumpet interchange. US 22 continues past I-476 to a cloverleaf interchange with thePA 309 freeway. Past the PA 309 interchange, the route runs near suburban neighborhoods as it passes to the north ofAllentown.
The freeway reaches a partial cloverleaf interchange withCedar Crest Boulevard and continues east-northeast to another partial cloverleaf interchange at 15th Street. US 22 heads intoWhitehall and passes overJordan Creek before it reaches a partial cloverleaf interchange withPA 145 in a business area, withLehigh Valley Mall located northeast of the interchange. The freeway runs past more suburban development and comes to a partial cloverleaf interchange with Fullerton Avenue inFullerton. Past this interchange, the route passes over theLehigh River and Norfolk Southern Railway'sLehigh Line on a bridge. US 22 continues east-northeast near development and reaches a cloverleaf interchange with the southern terminus ofPA 987 at Airport Road that servesLehigh Valley International Airport to the north. Following this interchange, the freeway entersBethlehem and comes to a trumpet interchange with the northern terminus of thePA 378 freeway before reaching a partial cloverleaf interchange with Schoenersville Road.[4][5]
At this interchange, US 22 leaves Bethlehem and entersNorthampton County, running northeast through suburban development. The route reaches a partial cloverleaf interchange with the southern terminus ofPA 512 and heads to the south of warehouses as it passes to the north of Bethlehem. The freeway passes over Norfolk Southern Railway's Cement Secondary railroad line and theMonocacy Creek before meeting the southern terminus ofPA 191 at a partial cloverleaf interchange. Past this interchange, US 22 continues east through a mix of suburban development and farmland before it comes to a cloverleaf interchange with thePA 33 freeway. The freeway heads through developed areas and reaches a partial cloverleaf interchange withPA 248, where it turns northeast and runs along the northern border of the borough ofWilson. The route curves east and fully enters Wilson before it crosses intoEaston and meets 13th Street at a partial cloverleaf interchange. After this interchange, US 22 winds east through a series of curves to the north of a cemetery, making a sharp turn to the southwest and crossingBushkill Creek before it turns sharply to the east. The route becomes an elevated highway that passes through developed areas to the north of downtown Easton, coming to a eastbound exit and westbound entrance with 4th Street and a westbound exit and eastbound entrance with 3rd Street and Snyder Avenue. US 22 has a westbound exit and eastbound entrance withPA 611 before it crosses theDelaware River on theEaston–Phillipsburg Toll Bridge intoNew Jersey.[4][5]
TheWilliam Penn Highway was organized as an alternative to theLincoln Highway being parallel to thePennsylvania Railroad west of Harrisburg. The route'sNew York City extension was adopted in 1916. ThePennsylvania Department of Highways assigned thePA 3 designation to this road in 1924, and, in 1926, it became part of US 22 when theU.S. Numbered Highway System was formed.[9]

The first alignment of the William Penn Highway became problematic for motorists inLebanon along the currentUS 422;Reading via US 22 andUS 222 andAllentown onHamilton Street, present-dayPA 222.[11] The highway continued through Allentown on Hanover Avenue and through Bethlehem on Broad Street, Linden Street, and Easton Avenue.
PA 43 was aligned as a bypass, north of thePennsylvania Dutch Country, that ran from US 22,US 11, andPA 5 inHarrisburg east toPA 12 inBethlehem.[12] From Harrisburg, this route followed modern-day US 22 to Paxtonia, then Jonestown Road to Jonestown and modern-day Old Route 22, Airport Road, and Main Street through Fredericksburg. East of here toFogelsville, the route is variously called Old Route 22, Shartlesville Road, and Hex Highway. The route from Fogelsville to the Allentown line, now Main Street and Tilghman Street, was designated Legislative Route 443 in 1925[13] before being incorporated into this route.[14] The route entered Harrisburg by Liberty Street and connected with the William Penn Highway through 17th Street.The New York Times was recommending use of this cutoff by early 1931.[14] On June 8, 1931, theAmerican Association of State Highway Officials came to a resolution for the traffic problem, by replacing the PA 43 corridor with US 22. ThePennsylvania Department of Highways moved the William Penn Highway name to match.[9][11] The state deleted a concurrency with PA 43 and what was thenUS 309 and truncated PA 43 to Susquehanna Street and Broadway from Allentown to Bethlehem.[15] Signs were changed to reflect the new designations on May 31, 1932, with the new route designations officially in place on June 1, 1932.[16]
Tilghman Street was eventually connected directly fromCetronia to Allentown by a bridge over Cedar Creek; Tilghman Street (west of the Lehigh River) and Union Boulevard (east of the river) were joined in 1929 by a bridge. By 1936, US 22 had been moved from its Hamilton and Broad streets alignment to Tilghman Street and Union Boulevard through Allentown and Bethlehem. From Bethlehem to Easton, an alternate route was formed along Goepp Street, Pembroke Road, and Freemansburg Avenue. With the construction ofa new bridge over the Delaware River in 1938, Prospect Avenue, Pearl Street, and Snyder Street in Easton were incorporated into US 22.[17] A new alignment from Fredericksburg to Paxtonia was built in the early 1940s. When the Lehigh Valley Thruway was completed in 1954, US 22 was moved onto it; its old alignment was redesignatedState Route 1002 (SR 1002) through Lehigh County. With the completion ofI-78, US 22 was moved onto that highway from Fredericksburg to Kuhnsville. The former alignment, although no longer a major state highway, is still well traveled by those who live in the vicinity.[citation needed]
I-78 originally would have continued with the US 22 concurrency on the Lehigh Valley Thruway intoNew Jersey, andI-178 andI-378, serving Allentown and Bethlehem, respectively. Due to opposition inPhillipsburg, New Jersey, on the building of a new highway through the town, thePennsylvania andNew Jersey departments of transportation decided to reroute I-78 to the south and allow US 22 to remain on the limited-access highway, which, after going through a series of sharp, potentially dangerous curves in Easton and crossing theDelaware River into New Jersey, becomes an at-grade divided highway in Phillipsburg.
The origins of this section of US 22 date back to the early 1800s, with the chartering of the Harrisburg, Lewistown, Huntingdon, and Pittsburgh Turnpike in 1807, following the course of what would become US 22 from Harrisburg to Pittsburgh,[18] providing a more northerly alternative to theHarrisburg and Pittsburgh Turnpike chartered the year prior. Support for the turnpike was lacking along its route, and so, to foster a sense of locality to the road, the company was broken up in the subsequent years into five sections: the Huntingdon, Cambria, and Indiana in 1810 (terminating at Huntingdon and Blairsville); the New Alexandria and Conemaugh in 1816 (Blairsville to New Alexandria); the Pittsburgh and New Alexandria Turnpike in 1816; and the Harrisburg and Millerstown, Millerstown and Lewistown, and Lewistown and Huntingdon turnpikes in 1821. In their own times, these companies constructed a highway across the Appalachian Mountains collectively called the Northern Pike, but all folded with competition from theMain Line of Public Works and, later, thePennsylvania Railroad.[citation needed]
In its earliest years, US 22 deviated from the original course of the William Penn Highway in a few notable places. With the construction of the Boulevard of the Allies in the early 1920s, the highway was rerouted to service this thoroughfare. This alignment entered Pittsburgh on modern day PA 8, then made its way downtown by Dallas Avenue, Wilkins Avenue, Beeler Street, Forbes Street, theBoulevard of the Allies, and Second Street. The highway then followed the old Pittsburgh and Steubenville Pike to Ohio. With the construction of the Penn-Lincoln Parkway in the late 1950s, both US 22 and US 30 were shifted to the new highway.
Further east, where the William Penn Highway deviated from the Northern Pike betweenEbensburg andWater Street to serviceAltoona andTyrone, the Northern Pike was restored as the main east–west thoroughfare, whileUS 220 was chosen to service these cities. A few notable deviations from this include Turkey Valley Road near Canoe Creek Lake, and a bend servicingWilliamsburg via modern-dayPA 866 and SR 2015, which both deviated from the Northern Pike.[19] These were later christened as PA 303 and PA 203 respectively when the highway was restored to the Northern Pike.[12] Near theSusquehanna River, before an alignment along theJuniata River had been constructed, the highway servicedNew Bloomfield and Meck's Corner by modern-dayPA 34 andPA 274; while US 22 was shifted north, this alignment still held its old designation of PA 3 for some time afterward.[12]
In 2011, it was announced that plans were being resurrected to widen US 22 fromAllentown toBethlehem. Part of the plan is to reconstruct the Lehigh River Bridge. The plan's cost is between $240 million to $320 million.[20] In late 2019, plans to study a potential upgrade to an interstate were announced since additional federal funding is available for interstate construction.[citation needed]
