Route description edit

The road begins not far from downtown Lexington as a four-lane road. It soon passes by the world headquarters of Lexmark immediately before the road's interchange with New Circle Road, Lexington's circular beltway. From New Circle Road, it remains a four-lane arterial until it reaches Interstate 64/75 at the northern edge of urban Lexington. It then becomes a scenic two-lane road for the remainder of its length.
