Route description
File:Georgia State Route 156 in Gordon County, Jan 2017.jpg]]
SR 156 begins at an intersection with U.S. Route 27 (US 27)/SR 1 north of Armuchee in Floyd County. It heads northeast through rural areas until it enters Gordon County. The highway continues to the northeast and curves to the east to Calhoun. The first intersection in Calhoun is SR 136 Connector (River Street). The two highways head concurrent to the north-northwest for about {{convert|700|ft|m}}. They split, with SR 156 heading to the northeast, and then to the southeast, over a CSX Transportation railroad, to an intersection with US 41/SR 3 (North Wall Street). SR 156 continues to the southeast and heads east to an interchange with Interstate 75 (I-75). The highway heads northeast and east to meet its eastern terminus, an intersection with US 411/SR 61 north of Ranger.
SR 156 is not part of the National Highway System.{{cite web|title=National Highway System: Georgia|url=https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/national_highway_system/nhs_maps/georgia/ga_georgia.pdf|format=PDF|publisher=United States Department of Transportation|date=October 1, 2012|access-date=June 24, 2013}}
