Pennsylvania Route 120 is a state highway in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania, running from U.S. Route 219 in Ridgway east to U.S. Route 220 in Lock Haven.

US 120 in the "final" 1926 plan; it was truncated to Ridgway-Reading in 1927

PA 120 was U.S. Route 120 until ca. 1967. US 120 was initially planned in 1926 as an Erie-Philadelphia route, but was truncated to Ridgway-Reading in 1927. The road east of Lock Haven became U.S. Route 220, U.S. Route 15 and U.S. Route 122 ca. 1935; this alignment is now roughly followed by US 220, Interstate 180, PA Route 147 and PA Route 61.
