For the original A108, a small road in London linking the A10 with the A1170, see A108 (North London).
For Griggs Approach in Ilford, shown on many A-Z Atlases as A108, see A108 (Griggs Approach).
The A108 number was used for the Sunderland bypass and the route north from the Tyne Tunnel from its opening in 1971 until the A1 was re-routed via the Tyne Tunnel in 1978, meaning that the northern section from West Boldon to Seaton Burn became A1, whilst the Sunderland bypass section to the south became part of A19, with the old A19 being renumbered to A1018.
Today the entire route is numbered A19.
