Oklahoma State Highway 156
State Highway 156, abbreviated SH-156, is a highway maintained by the U.S. state of Oklahoma. Spanning 16.91 mi through the north-central part of the state, it connects the town of Marland, Oklahoma to US-60/US-77/US-177 in the north to US-77 in the west. It is the former alignment of US-77.
Route description
