Pennsylvania Route 106 (PA 106) is a 20.69-mile-long (33.30 km) state highway located in both Susquehanna and Lackawanna counties in Pennsylvania. Route 106 begins at a fork from U.S. Route 11 (US 11) in the community of Kingsley. The route heads southeasterly for most of its length, interchanging with Interstate 81 (I-81) in Lenox Township. PA 106 continues into the city of Carbondale, where the designation terminates at US 6 Business (US 6 Bus., North Main Street), the former alignment of US 6 through Carbondale.
PA 106 is one of five portions of the original U.S. Route 106 (US 106), a spur of US 6 through Pennsylvania. US 106 went from US 6 in Wyalusing to the New York state line in Damascus Township along current-day PA 652. The designation was eliminated in 1972 and replaced by PA 106 from Kingsley to Carbondale, PA 652 from Indian Orchard to Darbytown and PA 706 from Wyalusing to New Milford.
