Since then, A-Z has become the trusted source for street maps and atlases, as well as developing Visitors’ Guides, Road Atlases and the Adventure Map series for walkers. From 2020, A-Z will be published by HarperCollins Publishers – producing maps, atlases and books that bring the streets of the United Kingdom to life.
