[1] A small, local road branches off Fv956 just south of Bremnes and continues northwards towards the village of Holm at the end of a small peninsula; together with this stretch, the combined road length is 19.9 kilometers (12.4 mi).

The road is mostly flat, with its highest point at an elevation of about 30 meters (98 ft) above sea level at Nevernes.

[2] Originally, small roads were built between the farms in the area, like many other places in Vesterålen.

The road along the south side of Gåsfjorden was formerly often closed in the winter due to snow.

In the early 1990s the road was widened and some embankments were built, eliminating the problem with the snow.
