Tim I stand corrected. The initial impetus for what became the Pennsylvania Turnpike began in 1910, but the actual project only started in 1934, while the Commonwealth didn't create the Turnpike Commission until 1937. New York had built a number of divided-lane thruways around New York in 1934, and Connecticut had built the Merritt Parkway prior to the construction of the Penna Turnpike.
