Route Description
NY 148 begins at an intersection with NY 104 (Ridge Road) and Quaker Road in the town of Hartland, just east of the Hartland Central Cemetery. The highway proceeds north through Hartland as a two-lane rural road, maintained by Niagara County as part of CR 15. NY 148 proceeds north, running along a short residential strip before the intersection with Chapman Road. After Chapman Road, NY 148 continues to pass homes until its junction with Seaman Road, where it enters more rural surroundings. The route crosses a canal as it proceeds northward through Hartland, bending northeast into the town of Somerset at Town Line Road.
In Somerset, NY 148 remains a two-lane roadway, passing through sparsely developed areas on its way to the village of Barker. In the southern part of the community, the route meets Coleman and West Somerset roads (CR 2 and CR 3, respectively). Through Barker, NY 148 is a two-lane residential street, passing west of Barker Free Library and east of Barker High School. After Haight Road, NY 148 leaves the village, continuing north through a lightly populated area. At Arlington Road, the number of homes along NY 148 rises once again as the route enters the hamlet of Somerset, located at the junction of NY 148 and NY 18 (Lake Road). This junction serves as the northern terminus of NY 148, while CR 15 continues north through Somerset towards Lake Ontario.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“By whatever means it is accomplished, the prime business of a play is to arouse the passions of its audience so that by the route of passion may be opened up new relationships between a man and men, and between men and Man. Drama is akin to the other inventions of man in that it ought to help us to know more, and not merely to spend our feelings.”
—Arthur Miller (b. 1915)
“A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.”
—John Locke (1632–1704)
