Sat Nav users
Please be aware that if you come from M62 / J24, your Sat Nav might well try to take you by the shortest route, through Blackley down to Elland and then down to West Vale. In a car this is no problem, but lorry or van drivers are advised to follow the route described above to avoid descending a series of steep and twisty roads through a series of residential areas, where cars double park. It's about half a mile further by the route above, but there is nowhere to get stuck.
