The A1300 begins as the John Reid Road at the junction with the A194. The road proceeds as Dual carriageway through Simonside, Brockley Whins, Biddick Hall and West Harton before passing South Tyneside District Hospital and Temple Memorial Park.
The duel carrigeway ends at the A1018 King George Rd Roundabout, and it goes along shops near Prince Edward Rd (A1300) It gets to a roundabout were the Sunderland Rd meets the A1300. then it gets to an Odd Traffic Light T Junction, but no left turn into that road, it gets to a roundabout were Centenary Ave meets to (Horsley Hill Square) and the A1300 Goes still on all the way to another roundabout. now it meets nearly the last junction for the A1300 so the roads meet the A1300 at a roundabout which is B1301 and Lizard Ln.
The road then becomes Redwell Lane and meets the Coast Road (A183) on the coast at Marsden.
The current route of the A1300 was originally the B1300, although when the Tyne Tunnel was completed, they decided to upgrade the B1300 to A-road status, to make easier access to South Shields town centre.
