Editing Northamptonshire (section)

===Roads===
Major national roads, including the [[M1 motorway]] (London to Leeds) and the [[A14 road (England)|A14]] (Rugby to Felixstowe), provide Northamptonshire with transport links both north–south and east–west. The [[A43 road|A43]] joins the M1 to the [[M40 motorway]], passing through the south of the county to the junction west of Brackley, and the [[A45 road|A45]] links Northampton with Wellingborough and Peterborough.

The county road network (excluding trunk roads and motorways), managed by West Northamptonshire Council and North Northamptonshire Council, includes the [[A45 road|A45]] west of the [[M1 motorway]], the [[A43 road|A43]] between [[Northampton]] and the county boundary near Stamford, the [[A361 road|A361]] between [[Kilsby]] and [[Banbury]] (Oxon) and all B, C and unclassified roads. Since 2009, these highways have been managed on behalf of the county council by MGWSP, a joint venture between [[May Gurney]] and WSP.
