Current route

SR 15A forms a western bypass for SR 15 (US 17) around DeLand. It joins into North Woodland Boulevard, north of DeLand and South Woodland Boulevard, south of DeLand. It continues northeast from its northern end as CR 15A (North Spring Garden Avenue) to SR 11. At its southern end, crossing US 17, it becomes East Taylor Road, joining in with CR 4101.

SR 15A was a spur from US 17 Roosevelt Boulevard on US 17 Alt Roosevelt Expressway until ending on eastbound Interstate 10 (SR 8). With the realignment of US 17 onto the Roosevelt Expressway, that segment became part of SR 15.

Major intersections

The entire route is in Volusia County.
