The Desiré Delano Bouterse Highway is the first motorway in Suriname between Avobakaweg connecting Paramaribo and Brokopondo to the John F. Kennedyweg near Johan Adolf Pengel International Airport.

It is hoped that with the new highway, the travel time can be reduced to one hour.

[1] The highway was named after President Dési Bouterse.

[5] The motorway begins on an at grade intersection with the Avobakaweg leading to Paramaribo and Brokopondo, cross the Para Creek which flows into the Suriname River using the Hanover bridge, and end on an at grade intersection with the John F. Kennedyweg, located near the airport and giving access to the Southern East-West Link, thus avoiding the built-up areas of Lelydorp and Onverwacht.

The road has 2x2 lanes without a hard shoulder over its entire length, and has no exits.
