Pennsylvania Route 424 (PA 424) is a 3.75-mile-long (6.04 km) state highway located in northeastern Pennsylvania. The western terminus is at Interstate 81 (I-81) exit 141 in Hazle Township. The eastern terminus is at PA 93 on the southeastern edge of Hazleton. The highway is called the Greater Hazleton Chamber Of Commerce Beltway or Arthur Gardner Highway and is a two-lane undivided road that forms a southern bypass of the city of Hazleton in Luzerne County, with an intermediate intersection with PA 309. The section of the road between PA 309 and PA 93 was constructed by 1980 and became State Route 3032 (SR 3032). The road was extended west to I-81 in 1999, and PA 424 was designated between I-81 and PA 93 in 2000. PA 424 was constructed to provide access to the Hazleton Commerce Center and to reduce truck traffic on adjacent roads. There are plans to extend the route west to PA 924 near Humboldt Industrial Park.
