Pennsylvania Route 255 (PA 255) is a 39.7-mile-long (63.9 km) state highway located in Clearfield and Elk Counties in Pennsylvania. The southern terminus is at US 219 near DuBois. The northern terminus is at US 219 Johnsonburg.
PA 255 begins at an intersection with US 219 in DuBois, Clearfield County, heading east on two-lane undivided East DuBois Avenue. The road runs immediately to the north of a Buffalo and Pittsburgh Railroad line and passes to the south of Penn State DuBois, gaining a center left-turn lane and heading through commercial areas with some homes. The route becomes the border between Sandy Township to the north and DuBois to the south, passing more businesses and coming to Shaffer. At this point, PA 255 becomes Bee Line Highway and heads northeast through wooded areas with some commercial development, coming to an interchange with I-80. Past this interchange, the road becomes two lanes and runs through more woodland with some fields and development. The route turns north and heads through the community of Sabula, where the railroad tracks turn east away from the road and the road runs to the west of Lake Sabula. PA 255 turns northeast and crosses into Huston Township, becoming Bennetts Valley Highway and continues through more forests with some patches of fields. The road passes through agricultural areas before heading into the residential community of Penfield and intersecting PA 153. From here, the route heads through a mix of woodland and farmland with some homes, passing through Mill Run and Hollywood.
