List of A roads in zone 6 in Great Britain starting east of the A6 and A7 roads, and west of the A1 (road beginning with 6).

Single- and double-digit roads[edit]

Road From To Notes

A60 Loughborough Doncaster
A61 Derby Thirsk Runs through Leeds as the eastern flank of Leeds Inner Ring Road. Forms the primary route between Leeds and Harrogate but is superseded to the south by the M1 motorway to Wakefield. Originally went on what is now the A6135 north of Sheffield.
A62 Leeds Manchester Former main Trans Pennine route from Lancashire to Yorkshire, most of the traffic now uses the M62 motorway, which follows roughly the same route between Manchester and Leeds, but extends to Hull and Liverpool
A63 Leeds Kingston upon Hull
A64 Leeds Scarborough Main road from West Yorkshire to the East Coast. Is briefly A64(M) as part of Leeds Inner Ring Road.
A65 Leeds Kendal Trans Pennine route.
A66 Grangetown Workington
A67 Bowes Crathorne
A68 Edinburgh Darlington
A69 Denton Burn Carlisle

Triple-digit roads[edit]

Road From To Notes
A600 Hitchin Bedford Runs through Shortstown and Cotton End. Originally started in Welwyn, but the section south of Hitchin is now B656, Codicote Road, High Street, and London Road.
A601 Derby Inner Ring Road. See also the A601(M) motorway in Lancashire.

Previously allocated to a road from Luton to near Babraham. Became a portion of the A505 in 1935 when it was extended north to the A11; the section through Hitchin and Baldock is now the B656.

A602 Hitchin Ware
A603 Bedford Cambridge Section from Sandy to New Wimpole (on the A1198) downgraded to B1042.
A604 Unused Used to run from Barton Seagrave to Harwich. Downgraded to sections of the A14, A1307, A143, A1017, A1124, A137, B1352, A120 and A136 by 1998. The original route went from the A6 at Barton Seagrave to the A14 at Huntingdon. Historically, the Godmanchester to Colchester section was the original A132, and the Colchester to Harwich section was the original A135.
A605 A14 J13 Hobbs Lot Bridge, near Guyhirn
A606 Stamford West Bridgford
A607 Leicester Bracebridge Heath
A608 Newstead Derby
A609 Nottingham Belper
A610 Nottingham Ambergate
A611 Nottingham Mansfield
A612 Nottingham Newark-on-Trent Runs via Southwell
A613 Unused Originally ran from Nuthall to Alfreton. The extension of the M1 to J28 and the completion of the A615 Alfreton bypass (now the A38) resulted in a faster route between Nottingham and Alfreton, and this was the final nail in the coffin for the A613. It was downgraded to the B600, probably in the late 1960s or early 1970s (does not show on maps after that).

Later used for the Gateshead Western Bypass from Birtley to Blaydon. Became part of the A69 early on and then the A1 in the 1990s.[1]

Number also appears in the DfT Road lists from around 2002 as "Reserved for use for the Kirkumgate - Disforth proposals". Both place names do not exist with these spellings ("Kirkumgate" is probably an archaic spelling for Kirkhamgate and "Disforth" is a typo). The route is likely a descendant of the Kirkhamgate - Dishforth Motorway, a proposal to extend the M1 north between Leeds and Bradford, which later became the A6183, before being rerouted east of Leeds and becoming the M1 extension north of J43.

A614 Calverton Bridlington
A615 Alfreton Matlock Former section between Alfreton and Mansfield now part of A38
A616 Newark-on-Trent Huddersfield Becomes M1 motorway between Junctions 30 & 35A
A617 Chesterfield Newark-on-Trent
A618 Clowne Rotherham
A619 Bakewell Worksop
A620 Ranby Beckingham
A621 Sheffield Baslow
A622 Unused Originally ran from Bakewell to Hathersage; downgraded to the B6001 in the 1960s, although a section in Calver is the southern end of the A625.

A623 Chapel-en-le-Frith Baslow
A624 Glossop Chapel-en-le-Frith Prior to rerouting of the A6 via Chapel-en-le-Frith this used to go as far as Buxton

A630 Sheffield M18 Junction 4
A631 Greenland Louth
A632 Matlock Cuckney Previously allocated to a road from Rotherham to north of Sheffield; this became part of the rerouted A629 at the same time the current A632 was created. The section between old and current A61 is now the B6546.
A633 Rotherham New Lodge
A634 Maltby A638 near Retford
A635 Manchester Doncaster Trans Pennine route. The westernmost section in Manchester is part of the unsigned A635(M).

Next used from Kegworth to West Bridgford, linking the M1 at J24 to Nottingham; a portion of the route was formally the B679. In 1978, the section west of the A614 was renumbered as a portion of a rerouted A453; the section to the east returned to the B679.

A685 Kendal Brough
A686 Penrith Haydon Bridge
A687 Ingleton Cantsfield Originally allocated between Scotch Corner and Darlington (the A1 was routed from Boroughbridge to Darlington via Thirsk and Northallerton). But as early as February 1922, it was decided that the A1 should run via Scotch Corner, as its route was more important. Eventually the MOT caved in to local authority knowledge, and the A687 was one of the first A roads to be decommissioned, becoming the A1. Much of route has since been downgraded due to completion of nearby A1(M) and A66(M), and the portion running through Barton was declassified. The section in County Durham is now part of the A66.

Kettering bypass Northampton Road, Kettering Former portion of the A43 before it was rerouted to bypass Kettering. Duplicate number.
A6014 Corby Great Oakley Originally on a route cutting the southeast corner between the A6013 and the A57 east of Ashopton. Became a portion of a rerouted A6013 in 1945 due to completion of the Ladybower Reservoir; the northern end is now gone, submerged beneath the reservoir.

An older routing went from A57 High Street to A616 Bank Street in Sheffield, but was later extended north to A61 when it was rerouted along West Bar. Became part of the A621 by the 1960s and is now unclassified.

A6020 Ashford-in-the-Water A619 near Bakewell Acts as a bypass for Bakewell.

Originally ran along Commercial Street in Sheffield, linking the A57 to the A61. Although the road was still classified in the 1990s, it did not have the A6020 number (it was moved to its current route in the 1930s) and had likely become a spur of the A57. Now unclassified.

A6021 South East Rotherham South West Rotherham Originally used on a route from the A628 Hemsworth Bypass to the A1/A639 junction at Barnsdale Bar, constructed in 2008-2009. The number stems from a typo, as the road was to be the A6201, but the route was mapped and signed as A6021. The signs have since been corrected.

A6038 Shipley Otley

Decommissioned when the A660 Otley bypass was built; the section west of the bypass became an extension of the A6038 and the eastern section became a portion of the A659. Number possibly used in Mansfield (appears on a DfT map from c. 2002), but no further information is known. Before Mansfield town center was bypassed, a tangle of A roads was shown on OS maps, and one of these probably had the A6039 number.

Originally used for the northern end of Derby Street in Bolton, linking the A579 to the A568 (now A676). Route is now gone due to redevelopment.

This became part of a rerouted A59 after World War II and the A6063 was reassigned to a portion of bypassed A59 through Myerscough Smithy. Later the route was extended to go around Samlesbury Aerodrome. In the 1960s the A59 and A677 were given their routes back, but the A6063 was declassified instead of being given its original route.
A6064 Unused Ran from Rishton to Harwood Bar. Downgraded to the B6535 in the 1970s.
A6065 Unused First used along Blackburn Road in Accrington from Abbey Street (then A680) to Broadway (then A679). Declassified to remove traffic from the center of Accrington.
