Route description

edit

Route 407 begins at an intersection with Route 1 (Trans-Canada Highway) and heads southwest along the banks of the Little Codroy River to pass through St. Andrew's, where it makes a sharp right turn at an intersection with a local road leading to the St. Andrews (Codroy Valley) Airport. The highway passes northwest through farmland to have an intersection with a local road leading to Loch Lomond before passing through Searston. Route 407 now crosses the mouth of the Codroy River and passes through Codroy Valley Provincial Park before entering Millville and coming to an end at an intersection with Route 406 (Codroy Road).
