State Route 542 (SR 542) is a state highway in western Carroll County, within the eastern side of Ohio. The route runs 15.8 miles (25.4 km) long and connects SR 212 near Sherrodsville to Magnolia at SR 183 by way of Dellroy and Atwood Lake.
SR 542 begins at an intersection with SR 212 in Monroe Township. The route heads north-northeast on a slight incline. Near the apex of this incline, the route winds around some hills and gets within the view of Atwood Lake. As the road curves to the east, entrances to numerous villages on the lake shoreline line the highway. SR 542 enters the village limits of Dellroy on Main Street and reaches a signalized intersection with Smith Avenue. At this intersection, SR 39 heads to the south on Smith Avenue and east on Main Street; SR 542 heads to the west on Main and to the north on Smith. To the north of the intersection, the route passes through a small business district, residential homes, and a small park before curving northwest and crossing Atwood Lake on a causeway. After the causeway, SR 542 turns due west and crosses more small tributaries of the lake and passes near more small villages surrounding the lake. Before crossing the last bridge over the lake, the route turns north into hilly terrain. Shortly after entering the village of Magnolia on Main Street, the route ends at an intersection of Main Street and Carrollton Street. SR 183 heads west on Carrollton Street and continues north on Main Street from this point. The intersection is located about 0.03 miles (48 m) south of the Carroll–Stark county line.
