Route Description
SR 145 begins at an intersection with SR 10 (Iron Bridge Road) in Chesterfield Court House. The state highway heads east as two-lane Centralia Road toward the hamlet of Centralia, where the highway has a grade crossing of CSX's North End Subdivision. Just east of the railroad crossing, SR 145 meets the northern end of SR 144 (Chester Road). SR 145 turns north onto Chester Road, which is a four-lane divided highway from just south of the SR 144–SR 145 intersection to north of the state highway's diamond interchange with the SR 288 freeway. North of the freeway, SR 145 closely parallels CSX's Bellwood Subdivision rail line northeast to Bellwood. There, the highway veers east and makes a 90-degree turn north at Perrymont Road. SR 145 veers east again and reaches its northern terminus at US 1 and US 301 (Jefferson Davis Highway).

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“God damnit, why must all those journalists be such sticklers for detail? Why, they’d hold you to an accurate description of the first time you ever made love, expecting you to remember the color of the room and the shape of the windows.”
