History
SR 154 was first signed in 1923, on a route between Lisbon and East Palestine, passing through East Fairfield, along current SR 517 and SR 558. In 1926, the highway was rerouted from Lisbon to Pennsylvania state line along current routing. The former route from Lisbon to East Palestine was decommissioned. Paving of the road between Lisbon and Elkton and from Rogers to Pennsylvania state line happened in 1929. The rest of the highway, between Elkton and Rogers, was paved in 1933. The former route of SR 154 between Lisbon and East Palestine was commissioned as SR 517, west of East Fairfield, and SR 558, east of East Fairfield.
