It runs north-north-east as Christiaan De Wet Drive through the suburbs of Allen's Nek, Weltevredenpark, and Radiokop. It crosses Johannesburg's M5 (Beyers Naude Drive) at Honeydew. It then becomes known as Northumberland Avenue and heads north-east through the suburbs of Sundowner and Northgate. After crossing Malibongwe Drive, formerly Hans Strijdom Drive (R512), it becomes Witkoppen Road for the remainder of its length.
It continues in an east-north-east direction through the suburbs of Northriding, Bloubosrand, Jukskei Park, and Fourways. Here, it meets the southern terminus of the R552 (Cedar Road) and crosses William Nicol Drive (R511), the Fourways referred to in the suburb's name.
