The road also serves as a connecting road to the A1 motorway as it is connected to Šestanovac interchange via a short connector road.[1] The northern terminus of the road is located at Aržano border crossing, providing access to Livno in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The road is 37.3 km (23.2 mi) long.[2]

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 the A1 motorway and the D8 state road carrying substantial tourist traffic.
