Route description
Route 380 begins on mainland Newfoundland in South Brook at an intersection with Route 1 (TCH) and heads north through town before leaving and heading northeast through very hilly terrain for several kilometres, where it has an intersection with Route 381 (Port Anson Road), which provides access to the communities on Sunday Cove Island. The highway now passes through Roberts Arm before crossing a Causeway onto Pilley's Island and passing through the Town of the same name, where it has an intersection with Route 382 (Long Island Tickle Road), which provides access to a ferry leading to Lushes Bight–Beaumont–Beaumont North (Long Island).{{cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/potential-causeway-no-brainer-1.4385283|title=Causeway to Long Island a 'no-brainer,' mayor say|date=Nov 3, 2017|publisher=CBC News|accessdate=Oct 29, 2020}}{{cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/ferry-services-cut-reaction-1.5576750 |title=Cut ferry operation costs, not services, says transportation committee head|date=May 20, 2020|publisher=CBC News|accessdate=Oct 29, 2020}} Route 380 now crosses another causeway onto Big Triton Island and winds its way through the town of Triton before heading through hilly terrain to cross the final causeway onto Brighton Tickle Island, where it comes to an end in downtown Brighton.
