context_page_description: In Great Britain, roads are given a letter with 1-4 numbers after it. This is how they are named. The letter is the category of the road. There are two main types of categories: motorways and non-motorways. There are two types of non-motorways: A roads and B roads. A roads are more important than B roads. There are also a very small number of C roads.
  This system only applies to the island of Great Britain. Northern Ireland and other islands have their own systems.
