Route description

PA 516 begins at the Maryland border in Manheim Township, heading to the northeast on two-lane undivided Lineboro Road. The road continues into Maryland as MD 86. From the state line, the route runs through open agricultural areas in a narrow valley with a few homes. PA 516 crosses into Codorus Township and reaches the community of Sticks, intersecting the western terminus of PA 851. Here, the route turns north onto Steltz Road and crosses PA 216 a short distance later, becoming Jefferson Road at this point. The road continues north through wooded areas with some homes before heading back into agricultural surroundings with occasional patches of woods and residences. The route turns more to the northwest and continues into Jefferson, where it becomes Baltimore Street and passes homes. Upon reaching a roundabout with Hanover Street/York Street in the center of town, PA 516 becomes Berlin Street. Upon leaving Jefferson, the route enters North Codorus Township and becomes Jefferson Road again and passes through a mix of farmland and residences. Farther to the north, PA 516 reaches its northern terminus at an intersection with PA 116 to the south of Spring Grove.[2][3]
