The southern terminus of the road is located in the town of Murter. The northern terminus is immediately to the south of Pirovac. The intersection with D8 state road, where D121 terminates, also represents the southern terminus of D59 state road to Knin. The road is 14.0 km (8.7 mi) long.
The road crosses from the mainland to the Murter Island in Tisno via a movable bridge. The bridge is raised twice a day for 30 minutes to allow passage of vessels through the strait.
The road, as well as all other state roads in Croatia, is managed and maintained by Hrvatske ceste, a state-owned company.
Traffic volume
Traffic is regularly counted and reported by Hrvatske ceste, operator of the road. Substantial variations between annual (AADT) and summer (ASDT) traffic volumes are attributed to the fact that the road serves as an approach to a number of resorts, carrying considerable tourist traffic.

Why this record matters
“D121 road” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, D121, road and Croatia provides the most credible route into that argument.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Feb 4, 2023. The linked authority identifier is Q5203987. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
