History
Rochdale to Bury
The section between Rochdale and Bury was turnpiked by the <templatestyles src="Template:Visible anchor/styles.css" />Rochdale and Bury and Sudden Roads Act 1797 (37 Geo. 3. c. 146).
Leeds to Wetherby
The original route between Leeds and Wetherby has a dual carriageway diverting from Roundhay Road/Wetherby Road, at the old Fforde Grene junction in Harehills. It runs along the Easterly Road dual carriageway passing Oakwood and Gipton. The re-routed A58 meets its original route at Boggart Hill in Seacroft. The re-routed section was constructed in the 1930s and had a branch of the Leeds Tramway running along the central reservation until the 1950s.[1] The proposed Leeds Supertram was also to run this route.[2]
