...to clear up a bit of confusion.
The road heading east from "St Geours-de-Maremne" is marked the N124 in my (old) atlas, and the D824 on Google maps [url= http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?ie=UTF8&q=40230+Saint-Geours-de-Maremne,+Landes,+Aquitania,+France&hl=en&cd=1&geocode=FUWemgId4zvt_w&split=0&sll=53.800651,-4.064941&sspn=6.881357,14.941406&hq=&hnear=Saint-Geours-de-Maremne,+Landes,+Aquitania,+France&ll=43.679418,-1.210728&spn=0.092863,0.222645&z=13 ]here[/url]
Anyone confirm which is correct?
Thanks

On my 2008 AA Europe Atlas, it is marked as N124. Not bang up to date but might help

Cheers fellas.
If it's changed its name, then it's ony recent as my 2008 atlas agrees with yours, Spooky.
My TomTom calls it the N124, too.
Thanks again.

It was déclassée in 2006. It's now the D824. I'm intrigued as to why this is important to you ph00.

Hello Edukator
I'm planning a route for later this week, and I'm already freaked out enough about driving there, so wanted to meticulously plan.
I hadn't just come across a discrepancy! 😀
Thanks for the info

Have a good trip, it's nice road but as everywhere in France, keep an eye on the oncoming traffic. Some overtakers rely on cars coming the other way to brake and let them in it seems.

All N roads became D roads a few years ago.

You don't have to demonstrate your ignorance on public forums Ian. There are still plenty of Nationale in France.
