The name Central Viaduct has been applied to an impressive masonry railway viaduct designed by Thomas Grainger, for the Leeds and Thirsk Railway and the Leeds, Dewsbury and Huddersfield Railway.

Built in 1844. Closed in 1967 when all trains were diverted into the City station. The viaduct is severed at both ends, leaving 15 arches, including crossings over the River Aire and the Leeds and Liverpool canal.
