It is a very short route, running for about 12 kilometres. Due to being a rough road, the maximum speed limit is 60 km/h, except through communities where the speed limit is reduced to 30 km/h. The western side of the route allows for a drive along the shore of Fortune Bay, until reaching the community of Frenchman’s Cove. Midway along the route is Frenchman's Cove Provincial Park, one of only a small number of provincial parks in existence since 1997. After exiting Frenchman’s Cove, motorists travel along the Frenchman's Cove Barasway and enjoy more of a view of Fortune Bay until approaching the Town of Garnish.
