Probably because it's a better road for towing. Have a look on Google Earth 'Street View' and compare the two roads which then may give you a better idea as to why the AA Route Planner chose the A605.
Thanks, will do, but the A605 seems to be a smaller road and brings you to the wrong side of Peterborough. A47 has stretches of dual carriageway. It does the same this end; to get to the A1 it says to go through much of Luton. We take the B road from Barton le Clay to Hitchin. So much easier...

If the B road from Barton le Clay to Hitchin is much easier then just use that route and ignore the AA Route Planner altogether. Quite often a route planner will provide the quickest route but it's not always the best choice so just stick with what you think is best.
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
