The A449 is one of the longest three-digit A roads in Great Britain, passing from Stafford to Wolverhampton before heading south via Worcester before finally ending in Newport, Monmouthshire.
It varies massively in character between a wide, primary, trunk, dual-carriageway major route at either end, to a bypassed quiet section; whilst in one nearly 20-mile-long section between Ross-on-Wye and Raglan it is the junior partner in a multiplex with the A40.
