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.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“All things are moral. That soul, which within us is a sentiment, outside of us is a law. We feel its inspiration; out there in history we can see its fatal strength.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The best history is but like the art of Rembrandt; it casts a vivid light on certain selected causes, on those which were best and greatest; it leaves all the rest in shadow and unseen.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
“The history of his present majesty, is a history of unremitting injuries and usurpations ... all of which have in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world, for the truth of which we pledge a faith yet unsullied by falsehood.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
