The majority of the road is a dual carriageway and connects notable historic sites including Heraclea, Euromus, Priene, Didyma, and Miletus.

The route crosses the Büyük Menderes River, and then follows Lake Bafa before entering the Karacabel Tunnel.

It links key tourist destinations, including Kuşadası (via D.515), Didim (via 09.59), and Bodrum (via D.330). The road passes through several towns as you head southbound including Söke, Pınarcık, Bafa, before ending at a roundabout in Milas where you can join the D.330.
