Route numberings with leading zeroes

The only ones I know of are in Leon County, FL, such as CR 0344 (Orchard Pond Pkwy) and the rest of their 03xx series, as well as some of American Samoa's highways (e.g. 001, 005). Are there any other routes with leading zeroes?

I don't know of any others in the U.S, but in certain provinces of China, there are provincial expressways numbered as S01, S02, etc. instead of the usual S1, S2, etc.
If you ever feel useless, remember that CR 504 exists.

I bet there's one or two in the Hundred Acre Wood as well.

There's a few counties in central Alabama with leading zeroes in their county road system.

Chambers County has a few; some of the "single-digit" routes have a single leading zero, others have two on the same route:


Talladega County:






There's a few places in the western half of Florida's panhandle, which feature 4-digit county routes with leading zeros, which are different routes than those without leading zeros. It's not just Leon County...Walton County has a habit of boring signs like this:


The four-digit county route trend hasn't really caught on to much of Florida, though there's a few places that use them. They typically keep in the same "bands" as the rest of the state route system (for example, CR 4nnn routes in the SR 400s area, along with other CR 400s). I suppose the CR 0nnn use that to prevent duplication, since there's a lot of deprecated routes in that area.

The Virginia F-route series uses leading zeroes.  Here is GMSV of F-007 - https://goo.gl/maps/rYfPvgvpJathMafF6

I know of 3 examples of regular Virginia primary routes with a leading zero in the posting but I consider these to be errors:

US 11 in Troutville - https://goo.gl/maps/ZxBcxSR1S5BxFeb27

US 29 has these VA 006 shields


VA 43 in Eagle Rock

Was someone in the county highway department a Bond fan?

In theory, the E-road netwrok. But in practice signage is very inconsistent, I've seen both E7 and E07. AFAIK, E007 (which is a completely different route out in Kyrgyzstan, unrelated to the trans-Pyrenean E07) is not signed, but I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being signed as E7 too. Fortunately the routes are thousands of miles apart.

In addition the auxiliary routes of the radials out of Beijing (those numbered GX) have a leading zero to make them four digits, as otherwise some would clash with regular National Highways (for example G0111 vs G111).
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.
