A1(M) is the designation given to a series of four separate motorway sections in England. Each section is an upgrade to a section of the A1, a major North-South road, which connects London, the capital of England, with Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland. The first section, the Doncaster Bypass, opened in 1961 and is one of the oldest sections of motorway in Britain.[1] Construction of a new section of A1(M) between Leeming and Barton was completed on 29 March 2018, a year later than the anticipated opening in 2017 due to extensive archaeological excavations. Its completion linked the Barton to Washington section with the Darrington to Leeming Bar section, forming the longest A1(M) section overall and reducing the number of sections from five to four. There has been a proposal to renumber the section of A1(M) to M1 between Micklefield to Washington, making this section a northern extension of the M1.[2] Overview{{A1 A1(M) overview }}From London to Sunderland, 123.33 miles of the route are non-motorway while the remaining 145.38 miles are to motorway standards. The motorway sections are discussed below.

It is managed by Road Management Services (Peterborough) Ltd under a DBFO contract with the Highways Agency.[3] Junctions

Skellow to Darrington (proposed)There are proposals in place to upgrade the Skellow to Darrington section of the A1 to motorway, meaning the entire strecth of A1 from Blyth in Nottinghamshire to Washington in Tyne and Wear will be motorway-standard road.[5] Darrington to Washington{{infobox road|country=GBR |type= AM |route=1 |length_mi= 98.6 |direction_a=North |terminus_a= Darrington |destinations= Wetherby, Knaresborough, Ripon, Catterick, Scotch Corner, Darlington, Newton Aycliffe, Durham, Houghton le Spring, Chester-le-Street, Washington Road network |terminus_b= Birtley |direction_b=South |established= 1965 |history=Constructed 1965–2018 |junction= J41 → M62 motorway J43 → M1 motorway J57 → A66(M) motorway J65 → A194(M) motorway |e-road={{BAB-E|15|UK}} }} This section opened in sections:
When this section opened it ended at a temporary terminus south of the M1. There was a final exit into Micklefield Village for non-motorway traffic onto what is now the access road. During the first week of June 2009, Junctions 44 and 45 were renumbered to 43 and 44. At the same time the existing A1/A659 Grange Moor junction became A1(M) Junction 45.[6] As a result many atlases show incorrect junction numbering for this stretch of motorway.
The northern section of the upgrade, bypassing Fairburn village, opened to traffic in April 2005 with a temporary connection with the existing A1 between Fairburn and Brotherton. The southern section, with a free-flow interchange with the M62 motorway, opened to traffic on 13 January 2006.
Work began in March 2009 to upgrade the Dishforth to Leeming section to dual 3-lane motorway standard with existing connections being replaced by two new junctions. The Dishforth to Baldersby Section {{nowrap|(J49 to J50)}} was completed in October 2011[9] and the Baldersby to Leeming section {{nowrap|(J50 to J51)}} was opened to traffic on 31 March 2012.
Work on upgrading the Leeming Bar to Barton section to three-lane motorway began in April 2014. Work was expected to be completed by summer 2017.[10] In early 2017, the Highways Agency announced that the full opening would be delayed until December 2017.[11] In the end, the motorway opened up on 29 March 2018, making the A1 continuous motorway standard from Darrington, West Yorkshire, to Washington, Tyne and Wear, though residual works were still to be completed.[12]
