SR 104 begins at SR 8/SR 11/SR 27 at the intersection of Bond Street and State Street / Mount Vernon Avenue in downtown Augusta.

Then after crossing the Messalonskee Stream, SR 137 breaks off to the south on Carter Memorial Drive andSR 137 Business (SR 137 Bus.) begins.[2]
Through Waterville, SR 11/SR 104/SR 137 Bus. travel northeast along Silver Street. SR 11 and SR 104 turn onto Elm Street into the city's business district.

The southern terminus of SR 104 was originally located at the roundabout where State Street, Memorial Drive and Western Avenue meet (along with seven different numbered routes, not including SR 104) in downtown Augusta, a terminus it shared with SR 8. SR 104 was cosigned with SR 8, SR 11 and SR 27 northbound along State Street before splitting at Bond Street onto its current alignment.
Sometime in the early 2010s, its designation was removed from State Street, after a change which prohibited traffic traveling south on 104 from turning left onto State St. from Bond St. eliminating SR 104 from the concurrency and shortening its length by approximately 0.8 miles (1.3 km).
