State Route 338 (SR 338) was a state highway in the southeastern portion of the U.S. state of Ohio, entirely in Meigs County. Running along the Ohio River, the route existed from 1932 until about 2012. For most of its history, SR 338 ran along the river between Racine and Lebanon Township with both ends at SR 124. At the time of its removal from the state highway system, the last remnant of the route was a 2.3-mile-long (3.7 km) segment (designated by the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) as SR 338-J) between US 33 near the Ravenswood Bridge and SR 124.
The following description is the description of SR 338-J c. 2008
SR 338 began at an intersection with US 33 near Racine. The route headed northward, running near the banks of the Ohio River. SR 338 intersected with a few private roads leading to nearby homes. A field is visible to the east, as the highway made its namesake turn as Great Bend Road. Through the bend, SR 338 turned and headed into a dense forest. After a short distance, SR 338 broke out of the dense patch of trees. With the Ohio River in view, the highway terminated at an intersection with SR 124 northeast of Racine.
The original route was certified in 1932; originally routed from Letart Falls (about 6 miles (9.7 km) south of Racine) to 10 miles (16 km) east of Letart Falls. The highway was extended to Racine in 1937 along a previously unnumbered road from Letart Falls to Antiquity, and along the former SR 337 from Antiquity to Racine. SR 338 was extended 8.5 miles (13.7 km) east of Racine along the previous and current alignment of SR 124.
