Route description
PA 958 begins at an intersection with a two-lane US 6 east of the city of Corry. The route progresses northward as a two-lane roadway through the rural regions of western Pennsylvania. PA 958 soon enters the community of Wrightsville, a small community of a few residences and mostly fields. At Deadmans Run Road, the highway begins to cross through a populated area, however, it soon leaves Wrightsville and turns to the northwest in the deep fields north of the community. The northwestern bend curves back to the northward progression and PA 958 passes through a large farm near an intersection with Kidder Road. Some residences parallel the highway as it makes another northwestern bend and soon comes on a northward stretch into the community of Lottsville, where the highway intersects with PA 957.[2]
At the intersection, PA 957 and PA 958 become concurrent along a westbound residential street, until leaving Lottsville, where the two routes turn to the southwest in fields. As PA 957 and PA 958 approach a railroad line used by the
History
PA 958 was first designated among many regional highways in the 1928 mass renumbering of state highways throughout Pennsylvania. The alignment, however was only a stub designation, connecting the southern terminus of US 6 (formerly PA 7[3]) to the community of Wrightsville, only a short distance away.[4] The alignment designed in 1928 only remained intact eight years into 1936, when it was extended northward to its current terminus at the New York state line near Bear Lake, Pennsylvania and Niobe, New York in 1936.[5] The alignment has remained unchanged since the 1936 extension.[6]
Major intersections
The entire route is in Warren County.
