Numbered roads in the UK are signed as M (Motorway), A, [12] or B [12] roads (legal "classification" varies between countries), as well as various categories of more minor roads: for internal purposes, local authorities may also use C, [13] D [citation needed] and U [13] (the letter standing for "Unclassified"); use of C and U numbers on signs is unusual but examples can be found in all four ...
Roads and lanes with yet lower traffic densities are designated as unclassified roads commonly using C, D and U prefixes but, while these are numbered, in general this is done for use by the local authorities who are responsible for maintaining them and the non-unique numbering is in a local series which usually does not appear on road signs ...
If the road occupies multiple zones, then the furthest-anticlockwise zone is the correct one. The following tables list all British roads which are anomalously numbered. Roads in bold lie completely outside their "correct" zone; all other roads run for some length in their "correct" zones but trespass into zones anticlockwise of this zone. A ...
Maps showed the route as a B-road, but with no number. Became a portion of the A57 in the late 1960s, probably when the A57(M) diverted it through the city center. Reserved on 25 January 2007 for Sheil Road in Liverpool. The road has been the B5188 since classification and there is no obvious reason why the number needs to change. B5318 A5058 ...
Next used in 1925 along an old section of the A38 to the east of Norton. Appears on maps up to 1934, but not on 1936 or 1937 maps.

B4027 A40 at Wheatley: A44 at Glympton: By way ...
A route (or road) number, designation or abbreviation is an identifying numeric (or alphanumeric) designation assigned by a highway authority to a particular stretch of roadway to distinguish it from other routes and, in many cases, also to indicate its classification (e.g. motorway, primary route, regional road, etc.), general geographical location (in zonal numbering systems) and/or ...
One of the shortest B-roads at under 200 yards. Depending on maps, it is either unclassified or a short one-way spur of the A3072.
