[edit] History
US 209 Business was US 209 until 1962 when US 209 was moved onto Interstate 80 between Marshalls Creek and present-day I-80 exit 305 in Stroudsburg, allowing US 209 Business to occupy the former alignment of US 209. US 209 Business was extended southward to its current southern terminus in 1964 when US 209 was relocated onto a bypass paralleling its former alignment between Stroudsburg and Sciota.
