caption_attribution_description: English: Road signs at the B6309, A696 junction Just in case you do not spot the milestone at this junction there are modern roadsigns on the other side of the road.
context_page_description: Primary destinations are locations that appear on route confirmation signs in the United Kingdom. Most are important settlements or conurbations, but some are bridges and tunnels, or even villages that are important junctions, e.g. Scotch Corner or Crianlarich.
  In 1994, previous lists for destinations in Great Britain were superseded when English, Scottish and Welsh destinations were prescribed in Appendix C of Local Transport Note 1/94: The Design and Use of Directional Informatory Signs, published by the then Department of Transport. A revised list for England was published in 2009 and updated in 2010. The 1994 list had 333 entries for England. When the 2010 list was compiled, 15 entries were removed and 16 added, giving a total of 334 entries. In December 2011, following a consultation, the Department for Transport announced that it would add Birmingham Airport, East Midlands Airport, Luton Airport, Thamesport and Port of Tilbury; and, in response to local feedback, that it would also add Colne and Minehead and ratify the removal of Stone.
  The list for Northern Ireland destinations has always been maintained separately from those for Great Britain.
context_section_description: Primary destinations in Greater London, other than Heathrow Airport and London, will generally only be signed within the M25 motorway.
