  A5

Central London (Marble Arch)

Holyhead

Forms parts of the historical route of Watling Street. The section from M1 J4 north of Edgware to N. of Dunstable is now numbered A5183. The A5 now starts at M1 J11A and runs west to join previous alignment.

  A50

Leicester

Warrington

Becomes M1 motorway between junctions 22 and 24A. Used to start at Hockliffe on A5, north of Dunstable. Gradually cut back to Northampton, then Leicester. Before opening of Derby southern bypass in 1997, it followed present A511 between Markfield and Foston.

  A51

Chester

Kingsbury

Formerly ending at the A5 in Tamworth, the road to the south was the northern end of the A423. When the latter was downgraded north of Coventry, the A51 was extended to the A47. Subsequently, the A47 too was downgraded (to the B1114) and the A51 was then cut back to its present terminus near Kingsbury.

  A500

Clayton

Nantwich

Known locally as the D Road, either because its route resembles the curved part of a letter D (with a section of the M6 forming the upright) or after the Roman numeral 'D' (500).

Originally ran from the A5 at Marble Arch to the A1 at Tally Ho Corner in North Finchley. In 1935 it was extended and rerouted over the A5088 Watford Bypass (the original route became the A598). Renumbered to A41 in the 1950s when it was deemed sensible to give the lower numbers of the bypassed routes to new-build bypasses and radials north of London.

  A501

Westway (London)

Moorgate

Part of the London Inner Ring Road, comprises Marylebone Road, Euston Road, Pentonville Road and City Road. Terminates at junction with London Wall.

  A506

Part of the road has since been reassigned to the M58 Motorway; in the 1970s part of it served the New TownofSkelmersdale[1]

Originally ran from the A5 in Hockliffe to the A508 south of Northampton. Became a southern extension of the A50 in 1935 and has since been downgraded (one section is now B526).

  A507

Buntingford

M1 junction 13

The northern terminus and the course of the road have recently been changed to bypass Ridgmont.

  A508

Forms part of Wellingborough's outer ring road, passes through Finedon and ends at Junction 11 of the A14 at Cranford St John.

  A511

Markfield

Foston, Derbyshire

Historical A50(T). The original route went from Atherstone to Burton upon Trent; the Atherstone-Twycross section became the B4116 and the Twycross-Burton section became a northern extension of the A444 in 1935.

The A511 number also appeared in the "Co-driver: The AA Motorists Companion" (1965) on a route linking the M6 to Wigan. Only the first section east of the M6 was built, however, and it is designated as the A5209.

  A512

Loughborough

Used a second time in 1935 for the Barnet Bypass (former A5092 and A5093). After the pre Worboys direction signs were introduced, it was decided to give the route a more unique number to aid navigation, and it became a portion of the A1 in 1954. Some portions are now the A1(M) and A1001.

The original A563 appeared in the 1922 Road Lists as "Liverpool - Manchester (Proposed new road)"; the route never appeared on any maps nor did it appear on the ground. A 1932 map does show a proposed A road between Walton, Liverpool and Pendlebury, Salford; this opened in 1934 as the A580, although it is likely it took over at least some of the concept of the A563.

  A564

Unused

The original A564 went from the A59 in Liverpool to the A567; rarely appears on maps due to its short length, and as a result it is unknown when the route was decommissioned, but it is now part of the A567.

Next used in the 1990s to refer to sections of the upgraded A50 (e.g. from Foston to Etwall) before the A50 was rerouted; became part of the A50 in 1998.

  A5070

Unused

Originally allocated to a loop off of the A59 through downtown Ornskirk. The A5070 was little more than an interim number pending the completion of the A59 bypass, after which it was downgraded to Class II status by 1926, possibly as B5319.

Used a second time by 1926 from HinckleytoStoney Bridge as an upgrade of the B579. The eastern section (along with the A46) was downgraded to the B4069 (now the B4669) due to completion of the M69. The remainder was downgraded in 1990 to the B4669 (an out-of-zone number as it is north of the A5) when the A47 Hinckley bypass opened.

  A5077

Ran from Uttoxeter to the Uttoxeter bypass. After the A50 Uttoxeter bypass was built, the section running through Uttoxeter town center was renumbered: the section running towards Derby was renumbered as an extension of the A518, the section running towards Stoke-on-Trent was renumbered as an extension of the A5077 and the section running along Bradley Street was downgraded.

Chester

Was the B5104 before it was upgraded.

Originally proposed in 1935 as a renumbering of the eastern end of the A572 between Swinton and Worsley, because it ran parallel to the New Liverpool - East Lancashire Road (the A580). This renumbering never happened, and the route remains the A572. The A5104 was instead used to upgrade a B road with the same number in North Wales.

  A5105

Morecambe

Bolton-le-Sands

A49 near Standish

  A5107

Edgware

Whetstone

Includes the Western section of Deansbrook Lane and Deans Lane, Selvage Lane, then Marsh Lane, Totteridge Common and Totteridge Lane

  A5110

Ran from Conwy to Tal-y-Cafn; former sections of B5106 (former B4407) and B5279. Designated after 1954 (not shown on the OS map that year) but before 1957 (first appeared on the OS maps). The sections got their numbers back before 1962 (number not shown on the map that year, but shown with their original numbers). It is not known why the A5110 even existed in the first place, given that one section is narrow and winding in places.

Shrewsbury

Former portion of the A49.

London Road, previously the former A5 between Emstrey and The Column, created when the original Shrewsbury bypass opened in 1933. Renumbered to A5064 in the 1970s when a new relief route was built around the east side of Shrewsbury; this route took over the A5112 number.

  A5113

Used for the original route of the A49 after the latter was rerouted further east. It was downgraded to the B5476 in the 1970s.

Ran from the-then terminus of the A55 (now J11) to the A5 Bangor bypass at what is now A55 J9; route was formerly a portion of the A5 and A487. Now part of the A5 and A487 again when the A55 was extended to Holyhead.

Number also used along Farrar Street in Bangor, but is unknown if the two routes co-existed or not, as no number can be identified for Farrar Street when the A5122 was rerouted.

May not actually exist; the number does not appear in Leicester County Council documents, but it does appear in DfT traffic count data as well as on OS maps. But even these maps are confusing, as it shows the route running along Ashby Street and Ashby Square before ending at unclassified Swan Street, both narrow one-way streets. Google Maps and OpenStreetMap do not even show the number at all, claiming that the route is part of the A512.

Previously allocated to a road from Braunstone to Abbey Park, bypassing Leicester to the east; this was the B583 before it was upgraded. Later became part of the A46 and is now unclassified except the northern end, which is now the B5327.

Was the A510 and A45 before the Wellingborough bypass was built.

  A5129

Ran from the A6 in Kegworth to the A453 east of Isley Walton; originally B5400 when it was upgraded in 1971 or 1972 and rerouted following extension of the runway at East Midlands Airport in the 1960s (the old route crossed the current runway). Except for the eastern end (which is now unclassified), the route is now part of the A453.

Some maps claim that the section east of the A600 is also unclassified.

  A5160

Proposed in 1935 to be reserved to form part of a Swindon-East Anglia route together with the A4160 (itself reserved to upgrade the B489 to Class I). But the tonnage was not enough (and likely would never be) on the B489 to upgrade it to Class I, so the proposal fell through. Instead, the A505 was extended over the A601, replacing the A5160.
