It follows Bernville Road along a northwest-to-southeast alignment on the southwest side of the borough. PA 183 was built on the route laid out for the South Mountain Railroad, which was never built.<ref name="Blue Marsh Map">See interactive note #11.</ref> Main Street runs parallel to PA 183 two blocks to the northeast. It divides Bernville roughly east–west and spans the length of the original borough. Two covered bridges, which no longer exist, crossed Northkill Creek, connecting Bernville with Jefferson Township. The Northkill Covered Bridge, 1848-~1950, crossed at 4th Street. The South Bernville Covered Bridge, 1849–1938, crossed near the South Bernville Hotel (a.k.a., Newport Hotel).<ref name="Blue Marsh Map" />
