A5199 road - Definition and Overview

The A5199 road is the direct road from Leicester to Northampton in England. It was formerly part of the A50 trunk road that ran from Bedfordshire to Lancashire.

As its course is broadly parallel and near to the M1 motorway it is very much lacking in modern features such as bypasses which is why it was classified downwards when the A14 road which it crosses at Junction 1 was built as a link between the M1/M6 junction and the East Coast ports.
