The A676 (former A6140) Deane Road
The A58 originally ran through the centre of Bolton. When it was moved onto its present route bypassing the town part of the bypassed route became the A6140.
The A6140 headed west out of town along Deane Road, which became Wigan Road as the road became more suburban. After going through Fernhill Gate the road reached Deane itself where the road ended as the A58 rejoined its old route.
The A6140 seems to have been short-lived and it is now the western end of the A676.
