D416 branches off to the south from the D414 near Ston towards Prapratno ferry port - providing ferry access to Sobra on island of Mljet and the D123 state road. The road is 0.9 km (0.56 mi) long. [1]

Like all other state roads in Croatia, the D416 is managed and maintained by Hrvatske ceste, state owned company. [2]

Traffic volume

Traffic is not regularly counted on the road, however, Hrvatske ceste reports the number of vehicles using Prapratno-Sobra ferry line, connecting D416 to the D123 state road. [3] Furthermore, the D416 road carries some local traffic on Pelješac peninsula itself, which does use the ferry at all, substantially exceeding the ferried traffic. Substantial variations between annual ( AADT) and summer (ASDT) traffic volumes are attributed to the fact that the road connects to a number of summer resorts.
