Pennsylvania Route 299 (PA 299) is a 0.05-mile-long (260 ft; 80 m) state highway located in Erie County in Pennsylvania. The route is the designation for the Staff Sergeant Jeremy R. Horton Memorial Bridge that carries Powell Avenue over two railroad lines in Millcreek Township. PA 299 was designated in 1930 between US 20 and PA 99, which is now PA 5 Alternate (PA 5 Alt.), running along Powell Avenue. In 2006, the current bridge over the railroad tracks was built. In 2011, all of PA 299 was decommissioned except for the Staff Sergeant Jeremy R. Horton Memorial Bridge, and is no longer signed as a traffic route. The section of Powell Avenue north of the bridge was realigned in 2012 as a result of runway expansion at Erie International Airport.
