Immediately after the bridge, the route leaves Third Street and turns north at Riverside Avenue, passing under the Huron Subdivision which uses the former Chicago and North Western Transportation Company bridge over the James River. Riverside Avenue runs along the east side of the river but then begins to pull away from it before the road ends at a flyover interchange with eastbound US 14 and westbound US 14.
