The route leaves VCC-Clark heading south on Keith Drive and makes a turn east onto 6th Avenue becoming Great Northern Way. It follows Great Northern Way which merges into West 2nd Avenue at Brunswick which merges into West 6th Avenue at Ash. It continues east along 6th Avenue to become West 4th Avenue at Hemlock all the way east onto Chancellor Boulevard, south on Wesbrook Mall and finally UBC Loop.
