Pennsylvania Route 401 is also known as Conestoga Road. In the colonial era, this route was known as the Conestoga Turnpike and was a main path of travel between Philadelphia and western towns such as Lancaster. Many of the wagons were of a flat but arched design that would float when fording creeks and rivers with high water. They were known as Conestoga wagons.
