Route description
PA 138 begins at an intersection with PA 8 in Clay Township, heading to the northeast on two-lane undivided Euclid Road. The road heads through a mix of farmland and woodland with some homes, reaching the residential community of Euclid.

Back into Clay Township, PA 138 splits from PA 308 by heading northeast onto North Washington Road.
