[edit] Route description

The southern terminus of Oregon Route 103 is at a junction with U.S. Route 26 near Mishawaka. OR 103 continues north through there, passing through numerous coast range communities, ending at a junction with Oregon Route 202 in Jewell.

Until recently, OR 103 was known by its internal ODOT highway number, rather than by a published Oregon route number. With a recent (2002) law which assigns route numbers to state-managed highways that do not have them, this route has been given the official route number OR 103 (and will be signed as such).
