A road whose number is prefixed with an 'A'. These were originally intended to be the major routes, but because of inconsistent upgrades and policies, an A-road can now vary from a single-track mountain road in Wales to a grade-separated motorway standard eight lane dual carriageway like the A2 in Kent. To help clear up the mess, in the 1960's primary status was introduced. A-road numbers can be one, two, three or four digits. See also B-Roads.
There are three different classifications: motorways, A-roads and B-roads. Motorways are grade-separated expressways and have 1, 2 or 3 digit numbers prefixed with 'M'. A-roads are other major routes; they vary from motorway-standard to narrow local roads, and have 1, 2, 3 or 4 digit numbers prefixed with 'A'. B-roads are local routes and have 3 or 4 digit numbers prefixed with 'B'.
It's what I was looking for. I misworded my question.
Anyway, thanks D. <3
