The A666 is a major road in east Lancashire, England. Also known as the Bolton Road, it runs from Pendlebury near Manchester, through Bolton, Darwen and Blackburn before meeting the A59 at Langho. Along the route are the West Pennine Moors, the Turton and Entwistle reservoir and the Entwistle reservoir forest.

It is commonly known as "The Devil's Highway" or "The Devil Road" due to its 'satanic' numbering. For a short length in central Bolton it is known as "St Peters Way".
