Highway 156 begins it western terminus at US 26/US 85 (Main Street) in Lingle, and from there WYO 156 proceeds due south as the western section runs north-south.[2][3] The eastern terminus of Wyoming Highway 157 is intersected a just under two-tenths of a miles.

WYO 156 comes to its eastern end at US 85/WYO 92 (Main Street) in the city of Torrington, in an area called South Torrington, just north of the US 85/WYO 154 junction.
