Road From To Notes
B500 A40 at Holborn Circus A1 at Barbican tube station Charterhouse Street and Long Lane around Smithfield Market
B501 A401 at Islington B500 Charterhouse Street, Smithfield Market St John Street, except for the section north of Rosebery Avenue which is part of the A401

B505 (defunct) A40 at Oxford Circus A400 at Camden Upgraded to a portion of the A4201, but that was later rerouted onto the parallel Portland Place instead of Great Portland Street, returning it to Class II status, but it became the B506 instead of the B505. The section along Mortimer Street is now part of the A5204.
B506 Marylebone Road Russell Square Great Portland Street and Mortimer Street east of Regent Street. Originally ran between the A5 and A400 (paralleling the A40), with a multiplex with the B505 at the western end of Mortimer Street. The B505 was upgraded to the A4201, and the section of B506 west of the B505 was also upgraded, probably to the A5204. The B506 was extended along the old route of the A4201 when it was rerouted along Portland Place. The remainder of the original B506 is now part of an extended A5204. The original route was also extended further east and when that became the A4201, the extension remained, dividing the route into two sections.

B508 (defunct) A5 in Maida Vale B505 (now A4201) near Camden Upgraded to the A5205, likely early on because the number fits into the original system (four-digit A roads in central London were numbered Ax2xx).

B5114 (defunct) Loop off A544 south of Llandudno Originally began in Llanrhos and ran along Bryn Lupus Road and Deganwy Road to Deganwy and then along a rail line to Tywyn, connecting the A544 to itself. The northernmost section was declassified by 1932 and was instead routed to the A544 in the center of Deganwy. This new route was upgraded to Class I status as the A496 in 1935 and is now the A546. The original northern end to Llanrhos remains unclassified.

B5147 Birkenhead Central railway station, Merseyside B5148 in Tranmere A road with the same number appears on road signs at the junction of A462 and Bloxwich Road North in Willenhall, West Midlands.

B5208 A5267 in Birkdale, Merseyside A565, Southport, Merseyside Originally ran from Blackbrook to Old Boston. Upgraded to the A599 by 1932.
B5209 A572 at Haydock A599 at Newton-le-Willows
B5210 Lythgoes Lane, Warrington Longford Street, Warrington Originally began at the A57 and ended at the-then A574. The route along Priestley Street is now part of a rerouted A57, the section along Froghall Lane, Tanners Lane and Pinners Brow is now unclassified (although some maps show it as the B5210) and the section along Marsh House Lane is now part of the A574, leaving only the section along Orford Lane as part of the B5210.
M6 J21, Martinscroft A574 in Fearnhead Duplicate number. Appears on the DfT Roads List as the B5310, but this is a typo.
B5211 M60 J13, Worsley A5181 in Stretford Originally ran from the A49 in Longford to the-then A574 in Padgate. Now a portion of a rerouted A50.
B5215 A572 at Leigh, Greater Manchester A577 at Atherton, Greater Manchester Formerly the A579 until the Atherleigh Way bypass opened.

B5216 (defunct) A5063 Trafford Road, Trafford Trafford Park Extended and upgraded to the A5081.

The number also appears in the DfT Card Index from around 2002 as a route along Long Street in Wigston. There is no evidence (apart from a single unofficial online reference) that the number was used for this route; official documents in 1978 and 2013 state the route as a portion of the B5418. The same reference also states that Paddock Street was a portion of the B5216, but this was a cul-de-sac before 1978 and is also odd that the number would have changed between 1978 and 2013.

B5220 (defunct) A526 (now B5117) in Rusholme A57 in Gorton Section west of the A6 (along Dickenson Road) upgraded to the A6010 and the remainder declassified.

B5222 (defunct) Albert Square, Manchester A6 Market Street, Manchester Upgraded to an extension of the A6042 (although this was out-of-zone), but is now declassified due to restructuring following the 1996 IRA bombing.

B5261 Blackpool, Lancashire Lytham, Lancashire
B5262 Blackpool, Lancashire Squires Gate, Blackpool, Lancashire
B5264 Plumpton Lane, Woodplumpton Woodplumpton Formerly the C346 before 2009.

First used along the southernmost section of Devonshire Road in Blackpool. Became a portion of a rerouted A587 by 1932 (old A587 became an unnumbered Class II road, although the two routes may have swapped numbers in the 1920s). After the A587 returned to its original routing to form a portion of the Blackpool eastern bypass, this became a portion of the B5124.

Next used along Bispham Road in Blackpool from the A587 to the A586, along the old route of the A587 (which was rerouted over the original B5264). Returned to the A587 after it was routed back to its original route; the old route of the A587 (the original B5264) is now the B5124. The OS maps show the last bit along Benson Road and the final part along Bispham Road as part of the B5264, despite it not showing on any other maps nor signed on the ground.

B5279 A470 at Tal-y-Cafn, Gwynedd B5106 at Tyn-y-Groes, Gwynedd Crosses the River Conwy at Tal-y-Cafn bridge, the only crossing between Conwy and Llanrwst.

B5290 A588 at Conder Green Glasson Dock First used on a route between Keswick and Bothel. Upgraded early on (1927-1928) to an extension of the A591; the southern end (within the Keswick bypass) is now part of the A5271 and the rest remains the A591.

May also have been used along the now-A5103 Princess Parkway/Princess Road in Manchester, as the 1932 and 1933 OS Ten Mile road maps show the number running through southern Manchester to the A560 on the southwest side of Northenden (now in Wythenshawe). The route is shown as the B529 (a typo) on a 1934 map. The 1934 OS Ten Mile map shows the route as upgraded to the A5103 and the B5290 along its current route near Lancaster.
