The B1313 is an urban B-road to the east of Newcastle upon Tyne city centre.
It starts on the B1312 Shields Road in the Byker area of town. It heads south, immediately crossing the A193 bypass at a roundabout. At the next roundabout it turns left to head into Walker where it ends about a mile later on the A186.
The A186 has been rerouted here and so the B1313 used to continue to the next roundabout, almost on the bank of the River Tyne, to end on the original line of the A186.
For a brief period, probably in the 1980s, the B1313 lost its north western arm to a temporarily much longer B1314, however, it now seems to have regained Union Road and Bothal Street.
