The road begins in Worsley village at junction 13 of the M60 at the A572, where this road goes beneath the M60. It crosses the East Lancashire Road – A580, after which it loses primary status. It then goes through Walkden past the railway station and crosses the A6. It heads over the M61 before meeting with the A5082. The road then comes to its end at Moses Gate near the A666.
It has a 30 mph speed limit for its full length.
