Dist:0.2km<br/>The former A1 dual-carriageway has been replaced by a motorway to the east of the village. One carriageway is being removed, returning the village to its pre-war calm (well, when the diggers have left, anyway).

Dist:0.3km<br/>During the construction of the new A1M Motorway at Fairburn in 2005, a length of roadway connected the old and new roads. This then allowed the old stretch of the road entering the village to be dug up and new bridges and roads to be constructed eventually connecting it to the Holmfield Interchange at Ferrybridge.
