access road/ coast road

Explanation:
This is the road which runs along the Amalfi Coast through places like Positano and Praiano. I would have thought that "coastal access road", or "access road to the Amalfi Coast", or just "Amalfi coast road" would suffice.

State Highway SS163 leading to the Amalfi Coast

Explanation:
= "Statale S.S. 163 di penetrazione alla costiera amalfitana"

note that in the English translation I have left out the dots in "SS163" since in English, such dots are completely redundant - but it would still be advisable to include the Italian designation of the road, albeit in anglicised form.
