  • Full access via East Dunstable Road at Turnpike Exit 4.
  • Partial access at Turnpike Exit 3; there is no Turnpike exit on the northbound side.
  • Full access between the two roads at Turnpike Exit 2 (Circumferential Highway).

The main road in Merrimack, the highway runs from the southeastern to northeastern portion of town, just east of the Everett Turnpike. It continues into Bedford, crossing to the west of the Everett Turnpike, and passing through the town's main commercial district, ending at the town's northern border with Manchester, where it becomes Second Street.
