A45 (north) from Earls Barton Road
The A45 is a major road which runs for almost 76 miles from Bordesley, Birmingham to Thrapston where it meets the A14. Prior to the construction of the M6 motorway it was the main route from the Midlands to Ipswich and Felixstowe. When the A1-M1 link road section of the current A14 opened in 1994 most of the A45 to the east of Cambridge was re-designated as the A14 and some sections to the west were downgraded to B-roads. The current route of the A45 and runs for less than half its original length, although it still provides an important link from Birmingham, Coventry, and Leamington to Northampton and the M1, avoiding the M6.
