In this paper, we have studied the regions of motion in the restricted three body problem (R3BP). The smaller primary is taken as a finite straight segment and bigger one as an oblate spheroid. There exist five libration points in this problem, out of which three are collinear and two are non-collinear, with the primaries. The collinear libration points are unstable for all values of mass parameter and the non-collinear libration points are stable for a critical value of. The location of libration points for different values of mass parameter, length of straight segment and oblateness parameter are also discussed numerically and shown graphically. The regions of motion of the infinitesimal mass are also studied.
