Roads and intersections


Tanners Falls is centered on the intersection of Upper Woods Road (Pennsylvania Route 4007, or PA-4007) and Tanners Falls Road (part of PA-4017). Six more state routes also run through the village: Hancock Highway (part of PA-191); Bethany Turnpike (part of PA-670); Beech Grove Road (PA-4005); Niles Pond Road (PA-4019), which connects to Hancock; Egypt Drive; and Egypt Road. The last two are part of the aforementioned PA-4017; the latter connects to Tanners Falls and the former connects to the former. All of these roads are paved.

There also eight township roads in Tanners Falls. Six of them are entirely within the village: Lupyak Road (Township Road 451, or T451); Bryant Road (T461), which connects to Upper Woods; Pleasant Valley Road (T463); Alden Road (T544), which connects to both Beech Grove and Lupyak; Haines School Road (T546), which connects to Bethany and Beech Grove; and Kilroe Road (T554), which connects to just Bethany.
