The A18 road ( English for road A18 ) is a trunk road in England that has only been designated as a primary route for a few sections , which ends from Doncaster essentially parallel to the M180 motorway to Ludborough and there on the A16 road . With the opening of the M180, it has largely lost its national importance.
