The road consists of two traffic lanes (one in each direction) without a central reservation. Although it passes through both rugged mountainous and lowland terrain, it has no tunnels or valley bridges (except for some on the new National Road). The Vrachasi tunnel was the first tunnel built on the National Road in Greece in the early 1970s on the new road. The road is part of the European route E75.
The planned A 90 motorway is essentially the upgrade of this highway which it will replace after its completion.
