Heading away from the A345
The A3029 was a link road near Upavon in Wiltshire, part of the junction between the A342 (from Rushall) and A345 (from West Chisenbury). The precise route is the A345 spur from the junction of the A342 Devizes Road, south to the A345 proper, to the south of Upavon, allowing traffic to avoid the centre of Upavon.
The road was renumbered as a spur of the A345 probably in 1935 (a Bartholomew map from the 1940s still gives the road the A3029 number but the OS seem to disagree). It remains this number on maps although road signs in both directions use the number the road is heading towards.
