With the [[Expansion plans for Milton Keynes|eastern expansion of Milton Keynes]] now under construction, [[Milton Keynes Partnership]] are downgrading the road to what it calls "a High Street". This plan is controversial and is opposed locally, by local [[Parish councils in England|parish councils]], residents and campaign group [[Urban Eden]], but the Partnership says that it has completed due process and consultations and now has the authority to impose it. It is not yet clear whether or not this stretch will retain the A5130 number or if it will be deleted. A {{convert|40|mph|abbr=on}} speed limit has been put in place along the stretch in question, and development has been built right up to the road's edge. MKP's eventual plan is to reduce the speed limit further to {{convert|30|mph|abbr=on}}. |

The A5130 was a minor A-class road in the United Kingdom, from (near) the M1 at Junction 14 to Woburn. Although the roadway still exists, it was declassified in 2017.[1]
It started on a roundabout with the A509 just west of Junction 14 of the M1 motorway and proceeded south round (what was then) the eastern edge of the original Milton Keynes designated area. After crossing the A421 the A5130 continued past the village of Wavendon. It then crossed the Bedford-Bletchley railway by means of a level crossing and passed through Woburn Sands. It terminated a short distance to the south upon meeting the A4012 just inside the village of Woburn.
