We are consulting on proposals to ease congestion and improve public transport, walking and cycling infrastructure on the A61 Wakefield Road in Barnsley.

The proposed A61 Wakefield Road scheme includes highway improvements at key junctions along the A61 corridor, between the Old Mill Lane/A61 gyratory north of Barnsley town centre and Carlton Road.

Our consultation runs from Monday 26 July until Friday 3 September.
