SR 527 heads north from the southern terminus as a four–lane highway. The route begins a signed concurrency with SR 7 at a traffic light, however unlike other concurrencies in the state, the higher numbered highway is officially designated on the road. SR 527 continues north while SR 7 has an official gap in the road.[2] The northern terminus of SR 527 is at an incomplete trumpet interchange with SR 7, with SR 7 heading southwest and some modified ramps providing access to nearby local and county roads.[3]
None of SR 527 is included as a part of the National Highway System (NHS).[4]
