Route description edit

 
A sign for Alabama State Route 151, located within Pinson, Alabama.

SR 151 begins at an intersection with SR 79 (Pinson Valley Parkway/New Bradford Road) on the western edge of Pinson. Here, the roadway continues as Jefferson County Route 131 (CR 131; Narrows Road). SR 151 travels to the east-southeast and, almost immediately, crosses over Beaver Creek. It is aligned along a four-lane undivided highway along its entire length. It curves to the east-northeast and reaches its northern terminus, an intersection with SR 75 (Center Point Road/Tapawingo Road). Although it is signed as a south–north route, the orientation of the highway is actually east–west.
