At Honnavar, it started at the junction with NH 17 (Old Number) and crossed NH 13 (Old Number) before joining the former NH 4 near Sira. (NH4 has now been renumbered as NH48).

All the National Highways were renumbered in the year 2010. Banavara to Honnavar sector of this highway is presently merged under new number NH 69 and Banavara to Tumkur sector is a part of new Highway number NH 73.
