Part of the road between Lozovac and Vidici interchange in Šibenik is executed as a single-carriageway, two-lane expressway with a speed limit of 80 km/h (50 mph) and, until 2012, used to be designated as D533 road.
The road, as well as all other state roads in Croatia, is managed and maintained by Hrvatske ceste, a state-owned company.[3]
Traffic volume edit
Traffic is regularly counted and reported by Hrvatske ceste, operator of the road.[4] Substantial variations between annual (AADT) and summer (ASDT) traffic volumes are attributed to the fact that the road serves as a connection to A1 motorway and it carries substantial tourist traffic.
