State Route 157 begins on US-6/US-191 at the Poplar Street/Hill Street interchange in the city of Helper.

The route then continues south  along South Main Street (which becomes North Spring Glen Road) toward Spring Glen, parallel to US-6/US-191, before turning east onto Kenilworth Road (initially 4500 North). The route then travels east-northeast along Kenilworth Road about  to Kenilworth, turning north onto Main Street for about , which then turns back to the west for the last , ending at Main Street and 1st Avenue. History
State Route 157 was established in 1933 as connecting what was then SR-8 (now US-6) between Helper and Spring Glen with Kenilworth. In 1953, the state legislature designated State Route 244 in 1953 as a loop off US-6 (then also US-50) in Helper, running along Poplar Street and Main Street. The west end of SR-157 was later extended north to SR-244 in Helper. In 2013, SR-244 was removed from the State Highway System, but the section of the former state route along Poplar Street (from US-6/US-191 to South Main Street) was added to SR-157. The result is the current alignment of SR-157 (south from Helper to Kenilworth road, thence northeast to Kenilworth). The entirety of the former SR-244 designation, which includes the Poplar Street segment of modern SR-157, remains signed as U.S. Route 6 Business. Major intersections
