Pennsylvania Route 71 (PA Route 71 or PA 71) was a state highway in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania, serving the Washington-Greensburg corridor that Interstate 70 now serves. The western terminus of the route was at U.S. Route 40 in North Bethlehem Township. The eastern terminus was at U.S. Route 30 in Greensburg.

Following its decommissioning in 1964, the routing of PA 71 became Pennsylvania Route 917 from US 40 to then-Interstate 70S (now Interstate 70) in Bentleyville, I-70S from Bentleyville to Pennsylvania Route 201 near North Belle Vernon, PA 201 from I-70S to Pennsylvania Route 136 near West Newton, and PA 136 from PA 201 to US 30.
