State Route 148 is an east-west state highway in eastern Ohio. Existing entirely in the southern portion of Belmont County, SR 148 has its western terminus at SR 800 approximately south of Barnesville. The eastern terminus of SR 148 is at SR 7 in Powhatan Point. From the SR 26 intersection easterly to its endpoint at SR 7, SR 148 generally runs in parallel to the Captina Creek.
In Powhatan Point, SR 148 intersects SR 7 twice. The signed portion of SR 148 comes to an end at the first intersection with SR 7.
