Lafayette Highway
OR 154 was established in 2002 as part of Oregon's project to assign route numbers to highways that previously were not assigned.
Despite the name, the Lafayette Highway does not actually reach Lafayette. However, a Yamhill County maintained "Lafayette Highway" continues past OR 18 to enter the city of Lafayette. Also, Yamhill County signs the portion of Oregon Route 153 east of the junction with OR 154 as "Lafayette Highway," as well.
