A30

The A30 is an old trunk road (main road) which runs from central London right down to Land's End, the westernmost point of the mainland Britain. In many parts it has been dualled and also now bypasses many of the old towns through which it ran in most of its lifetime.

There is a new dual carriageway link on one section between Honiton and Exeter in East Devon.

A major new portion (from the 1980s onwards) skirts the northern edge of Dartmoor in Devon, hence into Cornwall via the gateway town of Launceston[?] and then on into Cornwall and Bodmin via the moor.
