The length of the trunk road ceasing to be a trunk road starts from the centre point of the River Avon bridge at Newbridge, west of Bath (shown in Inset "B" on the plan) and continues in a generally north westerly direction to the Hicks Gate roundabout (shown in Inset "A" on the plan), north west of Keynsham but not including the circulatory carriageways of that roundabout, all in the District of Bath and North East Somerset. It is shown by broad black dashes on the plan and is approximately 8.8 kilometres in length.
