Traveling north from PA 18, PA 158 heads through a rural area of northern Lawrence County that is home to an Amish community and into the borough of New Wilmington, where it passes Westminster College and intersects with PA 208.[1] The two routes briefly overlap eastbound; at the intersection with PA 956, the concurrency ends, and PA 158 continues northward. As it leaves the borough, it enters Mercer County and winds northeasterly through rural countryside nearly Template:Convert before it passes over I-80. Approximately Template:Convert later, the route enters the borough of Mercer, where it meets the eastern terminus of PA 318 just one block before its own northern terminus at the US 62/PA 258 concurrency.

History

In 1927, what is now PA 158 was originally designated part of PA 18.[2] A year later, the road was signed as PA 158[3] when PA 18 was moved to its current alignment between PA 158 and Greenville.[2]
