The road now becomes Mill Lane as it passes through Whitburn Colliery.

Seaburn

Once through Whitburn, the road continues as Whitburn Bents Road, before changing its name to Whitburn Road, as we reach a roundabout with Lowry Road - the entrance to a Morrisons - here we enter Seaburn, which was the home of the annual Sunderland International Airshow which attracted 1.2 million visitors, before Sunderland Council stopped doing it in 2019, due to the council's efforts to be carbon neutral. Through Seaburn, the road passes lots of restaurants and bars, and also the B1291, before passing another roundabout, which mean we enter Roker.

Roker

After about Шаблон:Convert, it turns right onto Harbour View.

Monkwearmouth

It winds alongside the River Wear, before becoming Dame Dorothy Street, where it passes the National Glass Centre, the St. Peter's campus of the University of Sunderland, and the UNESCO World Heritage Site St. Peter's Church, built in 674AD (one of the oldest in England), before meeting the A1018.

Sunderland city centre

Wearmouth Bridge

The two roads run concurrent across the Wearmouth Bridge to cross the River Wear into the city centre, before splitting- the A1018 turning left to go around the eastern edge of the city, with the A183 turning right; looping around the north-western edge of the city centre as St. Mary's Way and Livingstone Road.

St. Michael's Way

Afterwards, we follow St. Michael's Way with the A1231 for around Шаблон:Convert, where the A183 turns right onto Chester Road.

As Chester Road it runs past the city campus of the University, and through a commercial section before reaching the Sunderland Royal Hospital.

Barnes

It runs alongside Bishopwearmouth Cemetery towards the Grindon estate, where it crosses the B1405.

Grindon, Pennywell and Hastings Hill

It is here that it becomes a dual carriageway - running past the Pennywell and Hastings Hill estates, past the Sunderland Echo office, to reach the A19.

Herrington and Penshaw

Past the A19 the road runs past the Herrington Country Park and the Penshaw Monument, through Penshaw, before reaching a large roundabout at Shiney Row with the A182.

Shiney Row

Originally, the road carried on through Shiney Row - but due to traffic-calming measures and the opening of a new link road past the new Biddick Woods Estate (which lies to the west of Shiney Row), the B1519 uses the old A183. Instead, A183 becomes Washington Highway, and shares the A182 for approx Шаблон:Convert, before coming onto its own again at Biddick Woods, changing its name to Basswood Road. It then links onto its original route just short of the county boundary, once again becoming Chester Road.

Borough of County Durham

The road becomes single carriageway once more, and passes out of Sunderland through Bournmoor, before passing the northern end of the A1052 at another roundabout. It runs downhill alongside the River Wear, close to Lumley Castle - this stretch is called New Bridge Bank, and the road crosses over the New Bridge, one of the earliest crossings over the River Wear. The road ends at the A1(M) junction 67, with the A693 and A167.
