The A6062 forms a suburban link between the A666 and A674 cutting a corner between the two and avoiding the excesses of Blackburn town centre.
The road starts at a gyratory on the A666 in the shadow of the Ewood Park stadium and heads west. The road is variable, with the first section from Ewood straddling terraced houses and climbing a steep hill away from the River Darwen. After two mini-roundabouts, it suddenly starts to climb again and widens out into a early 20th-Century suburban road passing semi-detached houses and 1960s overspill estates on its way.
After a short while the road crosses the Leeds & Liverpool Canal and turns sharply north before meeting the A674 at a mini roundabout. That's it for the A6062: it isn't the most exciting of roads in the world, even by Blackburn's standards.
