The route currently has a southern and northern segment. The southern segment runs from U.S. Route 30 (US 30) near Malvern north to Interstate 78 (I-78)/PA 309 near Allentown. The northern segment runs from I-81 in Ashley north to the New York state line near Brookdale, Pennsylvania, where the road becomes New York State Route 7 (NY 7). The southernmost 5 miles (8.0 km) of PA 29's northern segment is a freeway known as the South Cross Valley Expressway. The route was continuous until May 9, 1966, when PA 29 was split into the two segments that exist today.

Southern section
Chester County
The southern section of PA 29 begins at an intersection with US 30 (Lancaster Avenue) near Malvern in East Whiteland Township, Chester County, heading north on six-lane divided South Morehall Road. The road passes businesses and office parks, curving northwest and crossing the Chester Valley Rail Trail before coming to an interchange with the US 202 freeway. The route passes to the west of the Penn State Great Valley university campus at the Swedesford Road intersection and then becomes North Morehall Road, narrowing to four lanes and heading to the west of Great Valley Corporate Center. PA 29 runs through wooded areas, crossing Valley Creek before curving north and passing through more of the Great Valley Corporate Center. The road runs between a quarry to the west and a lake and residential development to the east before it comes to a ramp providing access to the Pennsylvania Turnpike (I-76). Past here, the route becomes undivided near more commercial development, crossing into Charlestown Township and then curving northwest, passing under the Pennsylvania Turnpike, and crossing an abandoned railroad line before entering Devault.[3][4]
At this point, PA 29 turns north onto a two-lane undivided State Road and runs through wooded areas with the abandoned railroad parallel to the east. The road curves northwest and passes to the west of a quarry before continuing through forests. The route turns north and passes through Aldham before it makes a curve to the northeast and crosses Pickering Creek. PA 29 passes under the abandoned railroad line and enters Schuylkill Township, heading through a mix of woods and fields with some homes parallel to the creek. The road turns east and then northeast, heading away from Pickering Creek and continuing into suburban residential development. The route becomes the border between Phoenixville to the northwest and Schuylkill Township to the southeast before fully entering Phoenixville as Main Street, passing homes. PA 29 heads to the east of Phoenixville Hospital before it comes to an intersection with PA 23, at which point Main Street splits to the north and PA 29 continues northeast along Manavon Street. The route continues through residential areas, turning north onto Starr Street. PA 29 heads north into the commercial downtown of Phoenixville, where it turns east onto Bridge Street.

Original route
PA 29 was created and first signed in 1928. During this time, construction began on the segment between Tunkhannock north to Springville. The following year, in 1929, the stretch between Tunkhannock and Lemon, midway Tunkhannock and Springville, opened to traffic. Lemon to Springville opened the following year, in 1930.
In 1934, work started on the section between US 6 in Tunkhannock and Franklin Forks, located midway between Montrose and the state border. The construction was complete by the following year. In 1936, two major sections of the route, stretching between Evans Falls to Rosengrants, near Tunkhannock, and from Franklin Forks to the state line, were paved. A subsequent project united PA 29 into a single route, completing the road from Hazleton to Tunkhannock. PA 29 and PA 113 switched alignments between Phoenixville and Rahns in 1937, with PA 29 now following its present alignment between those two places.[12][13] Two years later, the section from Rosengrants to Tunkhannock was paved. In 1940, the section between Bowmans Creek and Evans Falls was paved.
In 1946, the route underwent its first realignment when PA 29 was routed to its current position between West Nanticoke and Silkworth, shifting the route from Cragle Hill Road and Swamp Road to US 11 from Shickshinny to West Nanticoke. This routing replaced Pennsylvania Route 139. The route was split on May 9, 1966, by eliminating the section between US 309 in Allentown and US 11 in West Nanticoke, removing a number of overlaps that linked the two segments. The former alignment of PA 29 became solely US 309 (now PA 309) between Allentown and Schnecksville, newly-designated PA 873 between Schnecksville and Lehigh Gap, newly-designated PA 248 between Lehigh Gap and Weissport, solely US 209 between Weissport and Nesquehoning, an extension of PA 93 between Nesquehoning and Nescopeck, an extension of PA 239 between Nescopeck and Shickshinny, and solely US 11 between Shickshinny and West Nanticoke.[14][15]
Post-split
In 1969, construction began on the South Cross Valley Expressway between Sugar Notch and the Nanticoke interchange. The expressway was extended to I-81 in 1971 and opened in 1972.
Prior to construction of the US 202 expressway in 1970, PA 29 travelled entirely on Phoenixville Pike between Phoenixville and West Chester. PA 29 entered West Chester on Goshen Road and Marshall Street, ending at PA 100 (High Street) in town. When the US 202 expressway was built, PA 29 was rerouted onto Morehall Road at Devault and ran south to junction US 202 and then end at US 30.[2]
In 1978, PA 29 was re-signed to the northern segment of the route after 12 years of not having a designation. The southern terminus was moved from West Nanticoke to the current end at I-81 exit 164 in Ashley. Plans to extend the South Cross Valley Expressway were announced in 2009 but have not yet commenced.
In 1996, plans were made by the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission (PTC) to construct E-ZPass-only slip ramps connecting the Pennsylvania Turnpike to PA 29 near Devault. Construction of the ramps were seen as necessary in order to provide a turnpike connection to the nearby Great Valley Corporate Center, along with traffic relief to the area of suburban Chester County that lies within the 14-mile stretch of the turnpike between the Downingtown and Valley Forge interchanges. The slip ramps initially faced opposition from local residents, as they voiced concern as to the potential implications a turnpike connection would have on traffic in the area.[16] Funding for the PA 29 slip ramp was approved in 2002,[17] but due to environmental concerns, design issues, and continued opposition, construction did not begin until March of 2011.[17][18] The interchange officially opened to the public on December 11, 2012.[19] Following the turnpike's switch to toll-by-plate electronic toll collection in 2020, the interchange is no longer E-ZPass only, and is now open to non-E-ZPass tagholders.
In 2009, a roundabout was constructed at the intersection of PA 29 and PA 73 in Lower Frederick Township, which resulted in a decrease in crashes at the junction following its opening.[20]
In November 2020, a portion of PA 29 in Collegeville was realigned to directly cross East Main Street from 2nd Avenue to 1st Avenue, as the previous alignment had no direct connection between 2nd Avenue and 1st Avenue, forcing PA 29 drivers onto East Main Street for about 200 feet (61 m).[21]
