 After the A49 junction the road becomes delimited and turns to a southwesterly route past Oakmere and into a limit for the junction with the B5152 that leads north to Delamere and Delamere Forest.The road rises up to finish at a junction with the A54 that continues towards Kelsall and Chester.This junction does not obviously mark the end of the A556 since traffic on the A556 has right of way and traffic on the A54 has to give way to join.
