In the Great Britain road numbering scheme, the country is divided into numbered zones, the boundaries of which are usually defined by single-digit roads. The first digit of a road's number should be the number of the zone it occupies. If the road occupies multiple zones, then the furthest-anticlockwise zone is the correct one.

A road of the same number briefly connected two parts of the original route of the A380 in Newton Abbot to enable traffic to avoid the railway station.
