The original number of the "direct" route between Woodbridge and Felixstowe was the B1080. It left the A12 in Martlesham and headed straight south to the Ipswich - Felixstowe road, which was then the A139.
The number B1080 did not last long. Probably due to the amount of traffic avoiding the centre of Ipswich, it had already become the A1093 by 1928.
The route is now unclassified, as its route is shadowed by the current A12 Ipswich eastern bypass.
