The A35 (former B3057) Burgess Road
The B3057 was a short-lived B-road in the northern suburbs of Southampton. It gained its number in 1935 but was renumbered as part of the A3067 in the 1940s before becoming its present number, A35, in 1953.
The road started at Bassett Cross where it met the A33 Bassett Avenue and A3067 Burgess Road and headed west along the western section of Burgess Road. It ended after about half a mile on Winchester Road, originally the A35 but renumbered A3067 in the 1940s. Given that that road had had to multiplex along the A33 to get between Burgess Road and Winchester Road whilst the B3057 took the direct route it is not surprising the road was renumbered.
