Route

The B5120 passes the Royal Victoria

The B5120 is a short link road in the Welsh coastal town of Prestatyn.

It starts at a mini-roundabout on the A547 to the west of the town centre. It heads north along Ffordd Pendyffryn before crossing a bridge over the railway line and the station. The road then bends sharply right to pass an entrance to the station before bending left again and ending at traffic lights on the A548.

History

Originally the B5120 ran along the parallel High Street, ending at the railway line by the station. It was later extended over the bridge it uses now to meet the A548 (which did not exist in 1922).

The High Street is now closed to through traffic, hence the current route of the road.
