At least four special routes of U.S. Route 422 currently exist and at least three have been decommissioned.

In New Castle, U.S. Route 422 Business is a 7-mile (11 km) route following the original alignment of its parent. At its western edge, the route leaves the freeway and travels as a four-laner along the Shenango River. Amongst a combination of residences and light industry, the route confusingly meets US 224. Winding its way through the city center, the route changes directions several times as it functions as portions of State Street, Jefferson Avenue, Washington Street, and, in a more tree-lined residential area, Butler Street. Closer to its eastern edge, it passes commercial development, and 422 Business joins with US 422 as its freeway segment ends.

In Kittanning, U.S. Route 422 Business is a 5-mile (8.0 km) route following the original alignment of its parent. It begins in the west with a cosignment with PA 286, before arching around commercial development in West Kittanning and crossing the Kittanning Citizens Bridge. After serving as the major Water Street, the route winds out of Kittanning toward the edge of the bypass.
