The N1 begins at the border with Ivory Coast at Elubo and proceeds southeast through the town of Esiama, where the road splits and the N1 continues east to Apemenyim. The route veers south at Agona, where it intersects with the R84 before continuing on through downtown Sekondi-Takoradi. At the Market Circle, the N1 continues north along the Cape Coast - Takoradi road to Nkwanta, where it crosses into the Central Region.

In the Central Region, the N1 turns back toward the coast through Elmina. At Cape Coast, the route veers north toward Yamoransa, where it splits into two separate routes - the northbound N8 and the eastbound N1 along the coast. The N1 meets the R80 at Mankessim, where it continues east to the R62 junction at Winneba. After Winneba, the N1 continues east through Kasoa, entering the Greater Accra Region at Ngleshi-Amanfro.

From Ngleshi-Amanfro, the N1 continues east through Mallam in Accra, where it turns north and continues as a six-lane motorway for 14 km (8.7 mi) as the George Walker Bush Motorway.[1][2] At Nsawam road, it meets the N6, which runs north toward Kumasi. The N1 continues east toward the Tetteh Quarshie Interchange, where it intersects with the northbound N4 and continues as a four-lane motorway for 19 km (12 mi) as the Kwame Nkrumah Motorway. At the Motorway Roundabout, the N1 splits into two - the northbound N2 and eastbound N1. It then continues northeast through Kasseh, where it veers sharply north through Kpotame Tefleh and crosses the Volta River into the Volta Region.

In the Volta Region, the N1 continues begins at Sogakope and continues east until Akatsi, where it turns south toward the coast through Afife and Klikor-Agbozume.
