Starrucca Creek is an 18.1-mile-long (29.1 km)[1] tributary of the Susquehanna River in Susquehanna and Wayne counties, Pennsylvania in the United States.[2] Shadigee Creek joins Starrucca Creek just downstream of Starrucca.[2] Soon after passing under the Starrucca Viaduct, Starrucca Creek joins the Susquehanna near the borough of Lanesboro.[2]

The former Stone Arch Bridge crossed Starrucca Creek at the borough of Starrucca.[3]
