Route description

edit

SR 189 begins at its intersection with SR 52 in the central business district of Kinston.[2] From this terminus, the route travels in an easterly direction prior to turning to the north as it exits the town.[3] From this point, SR 189 generally travels in a north-northeast direction where it intersects both SR 134 and SR 141 en route to Elba.[4] Within Elba, the route turns north in a concurrency with SR 203 and joins US 84 on the west side of the town.[5] Upon leaving their brief concurrency with US 84, SR 189 and 203 turn north and east in a bypass of Elba. SR 189 then leaves SR 203[5] and generally travels in a northwesterly direction en route to its northern terminus at US 331 south of Brantley.[6]
