Pennsylvania Route 624 (PA 624) is a north–south state route located in southern central Pennsylvania. Its southern terminus is at PA 24 in Red Lion. The northern terminus is at PA 462 in Wrightsville near the Columbia–Wrightsville Bridge that carries PA 462 across the Susquehanna River. PA 624 is a two-lane undivided road that runs through rural areas in eastern York County. The route heads northeast from Red Lion and passes through Windsor before it comes to an intersection with PA 124 and PA 425 in Craley. PA 624 continues northeast before it turns north and follows the western bank of the Susquehanna River to Wrightsville. PA 224 was originally designated in 1928 to run from Red Lion north to U.S. Route 30 (US 30, now PA 462) in Wrightsville. The route was extended south to PA 24/PA 74 in Red Lion by 1930. In the 1930s, PA 224 was renumbered to PA 624 to avoid confusion with US 224. The south end of PA 624 was moved to its current location in the 1960s following a rerouting of PA 24.
