Pennsylvania Route 873
Pennsylvania Route 873 (PA 873) is a north-south, two-lane road mainly located in northern Lehigh County, Pennsylvania with a small section in Northampton County. Its southern terminus is at PA 309 in Schnecksville. Its northern terminus is at PA 248 in the Lehigh Township hamlet of Weiders Crossing. The route runs through rural areas in northern Lehigh County, intersecting the western terminus of PA 329 in Neffs. PA 873 passes through Slatington as Main Street before it crosses the Lehigh River into Northampton County and immediately reaches its northern terminus south of Lehigh Gap in Blue Mountain.
The road between Schnecksville and Lehigh Gap was originally designated part of Legislative Route 163 in 1911. This section of road became part of U.S. Route 309 (US 309) when the U.S. Highway System was established in 1926. In the late 1920s, PA 22 and PA 130 were briefly marked concurrent with US 309 at different times. In the 1950s, US 309 was moved to a new alignment to the west, and part of PA 29 was designated onto the road between Schnecksville and Lehigh Gap. PA 873 was designated onto this road in the 1960s after PA 29 was split into two segments.
==Route description==
PA 873 begins at an intersection with PA 309 in the community of Schnecksville in North Whitehall Township, Lehigh County. From this intersection, the route heads north on a two-lane undivided road, passing a mix of homes and businesses. The road turns northeast and passes residences and fields before intersecting the western terminus of PA 329. From here, PA 873 continues north into the residential community of Neffs before curving northwest and entering Washington Township. In this area, the road passes through a mix of housing developments and farmland as it turns north and passes over I-476 (Pennsylvania Turnpike Northeast Extension). The route continues through rural areas of homes and woods prior to crossing into Slatington. Here, PA 873 becomes Main Street and is lined with residences before reaching the commercial downtown, where the road makes a sharp turn to the east. The route turns north onto Walnut Street and passes more businesses before passing a few homes a short distance to the west of Slatington Airport. PA 873 leaves Slatington for Washington Township again and runs through wooded areas with some residences. The route turns northeast and crosses the Lehigh River into Lehigh Township in Northampton County, where it passes over Norfolk Southern's Lehigh Line before ending at PA 248 at the base of Blue Mountain south of Lehigh Gap.
