===High Speed Two=== Under proposals released on 28 January 2013, Garforth would see the [[High Speed 2]] railway line built close to the village, running adjacent to the M1 motorway. The High Speed Line would cross the existing railway line close to Thorpe Park to the west of the village. This line would carry the spur away from Leeds, towards the [[East Coast Main Line]] at [[Church Fenton]].<ref> [https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/68988/hs2-arp-000-dr-rt-55001_3-0.pdf Map], High Speed Rail Link, Retrieved 20 October 2014</ref> (Update) The decision to cancel the eastern leg was announced by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in October 2023 at the Conservative Party Conference
