[1] The route from Aberaeron, where it branches off the A487, joins the A40 at Llanwrda, is generally orientated from northwest to southeast.
After continuing through the village of Temple Bar, it enters Lampeter to join the A485 road.
Still travelling southeastwards, the A482 climbs to higher elevations and passes through grasslands and wooded areas.
It crosses the River Cothi at Pumsaint and continues winding through rural scenery to Llanwrda.
