In 1795, the section of Cam High Road was abandoned as part of the turnpike and an alternative route was driven over the moors from the then hamlet of Hawes through Widdale to meet the turnpike at a place called Gearstones. This was a gentler route, although uphill to Newby Head from both directions, the ascent was 500 feet (150 m) lower than that of Cam Fell and Wether Fell at 1,986 feet (605 m). This diversion accelerated the demise of Askrigg as a market town and meant a prosperous growth in Hawes which also became the place of coaching inns and hostelries. 42: 499:

In 1835, the total receipts from the tollhouses in the eastern district was £271, 7 shillings and sixpence. £116 was spent on wages for labour, tradesmen, the treasurer (£10) and the clerk (£5). However, the trust was in debt to the tune of over £4,100. Conversely, the western district had toll receipts of over £515 and paid their treasurer and clerk twice as much as the eastern district. Their debts were slightly higher at £5,200.

A bridge was constructed at Richmond which spanned the River Swale. Over this, the turnpike went in a rough south westerly direction encountering its first tollbar at Slee Hill where the edge of Richmond was. The bridge at Richmond, always known as 451:, each employed their own contractor to finish their half of the bridge and meet in the middle. This can be seen in the slight differences of construction; at the county end (the southern half) the masonry is composed of two layers of stone. On the borough half (the northern end) the depth of the stone runs to three layers. 397:
Much of the route had already existed in one form or another, it was down to the Turnpike Trust to remediate all the surfaces and then charge tolls which they set about doing as soon as the bill was passed in May 1751. Fothergill reported in 1755 that the road was "60 miles (97 km) in length; 40
