This is the old southbound carriageway of the A1 at the Cowthorpe/North Deighton lane end.

This is the new roundabout at Walshford looking south. Note we have an original A1 south route confirmation sign right on the corner. The other one says The South (A1) and Wetherby A168. The road is the old southbound carriageway, the northbound is gone. The Bridge Inn is about 200 yards off the right hand side of the pic.

This Simple Lane Closure Caused 20 Minute Delays Due To The Roadworks Being Completed In Daytime Traffic - Traffic Queued To The Junction For The Old A19

The imaginatively named A1 Bridge and Old A1 Bridge.
The stretch north of Wetherby has been singled and the kink now looks like it did in the 19th century.

This shot is looking south towards Wetherby on what is now the old A1, for now it is coned off to 1 lane each way but soon all traffic will use the southbound side as a 2 way road the A168.

This shot is looking north from the Cowthorpe road bridge above the old A1, looking at it its hard to belive that yesterday this road was packed with A1 traffic. Look at how quiet it is now, bet the people in that house on the left of the photo are pleased.

This is looking south at the start of the Wetherby bypass for now all traffic is diverted into Wetherby but soon they will join the new road to the left of the photo ( the road is where the lamposts are in the distance on the left) to junction 46, the road is already built it just needs the new roundabout building at this point to conect it up.

Just a few years on and found some old pics of how this section looked, looking north towards walshford, blue sign on left says start of motorway and gives distance.

This is simply the reverse view of Old A1_1. I now have my back to the roundabout and looking north. The Walshford flyover is just visible to the right of the trees as are the roofs of lorries on the new stretch. So the A1 has to have run pretty much from me direct to that bridge.

D2 section extant just north of where the new alignment bears off to the east.
