SR 288 runs exclusively through the rural northern portion of
CSX railway. The highway soon crosses into North Bloomfield Township, where the rural setting features occasional patches of woods and a few homes amidst the predominant farmlands. SR 288 passes through successive intersections with Atkinson Road (County Road 38, CR 38) and West Point–Galion Road (CR 40) prior to its junction with SR 19. Continuing to the east-northeast, SR 288 crosses Clase Road (Township Road 236, TR 236), Williamsport–Crestline Road (CR 46), North Bloomfield Road (TR 48), Williamsport–Williamsburg Road (CR 20) and Meadowcreek Place (TR 249). SR 288 comes to an end as it arrives as the T-intersection it has with SR 97.[2]
No part of this highway is included within the National Highway System.[3]
