Farm to Market Road 548 (FM 548) is a Farm to Market Road located in the eastern portion of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.
FM 548 begins at an intersection with FM 740 just south of Forney. FM 548 travels northeast for about two miles (3.2 km) before intersecting FM 741, near Forney High School. At the intersection with FM 1641, FM 548 runs in a more north–south direction, intersecting with FM 688 and US Highway 80 (US 80). The highway turns back to the northeast at Marketplace Drive, the location of a major shopping center in the town. Leaving Forney, FM 548 travels by many subdivisions before taking a more rural route.
Entering Rockwall County, the highway enters the town of McLendon-Chisholm. In the community, FM 548 shares a short overlap with State Highway 205 (SH 205). Exiting the town, the highway continues to run in a northeast direction, before making a nearly 90-degree turn to the northwest. Just south of the intersection with SH 276, FM 548 turns to the north, entering Royse City a few miles to the north. The highway intersects with Interstate 30 (I-30) before ending at SH 66 in downtown.
