Quintana Roo

Fed. 295 begins in Felipe Carrillo Puerto at an intersection with Fed. 184 (Avenida Lázaro Cárdenas del Río). The highway travels in a northeast direction along Calle 66 for a few blocks before turning northwest. Fed. 295 leaves the town and crosses over Libramiento Felipe Carrillo Puerto (Fed. 307D) without any connection between the two highways. Leaving the Felipe Carrillo Puerto area, the highway travels in a generally northwestern direction through rural areas, passing through several small towns and villages. Fed. 295 turns northeast near the Tihosuco-Dziuche state highway before turning east near the town of Tihosuco. The highway travels east through the town before turning back into a northeast direction approximately 5 km east of the town. Fed. 295 then turns north at Tepich before entering the state of Yucatán about 6 km north of the town.

Yucatán

Fed. 295 enters Yucatán near the village of X-Tohbil. The highway mostly travels through rural areas in the southern part of the state for about 45 km before reaching the city of Valladolid. Fed. 295 travels through the city on a pair of one-way streets, with northbound traffic traveling along Calle 40 and southbound traffic on Calle 42. The highway intersects Fed. 180, also traveling on a pair of one-way streets, in the city's downtown area; the four streets serve as the boundaries for Parque Principal Francisco Cantón Rosado, a city park that features the La Mestiza fountain in the center. Fed. 295 meets Fed. 180D (Autopista Mérida-Cancún) just north of the city at a cloverleaf interchange. Fed. 295 resumes it rural course, traveling through the towns of Temozón and Calotmul. The highway enters Tizimín, where it serves as the eastern terminus of Fed. 176 and the western terminus of SH 15. Just north of the city, the highway has a spur route, also signed as Fed. 295, that travels to the town of Panabá. Fed. 295 resumes it rural course, traveling through areas with thick vegetation, then enters Río Lagartos, inside the Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve. The highway's northern terminus is in the town at the Calle 21 intersection, with the roadway continuing north as Calle 10.
