Reminds of of that farmer who refused to move when a major road was being built; he fought it for years an eventually they built the road around him at enormous cost. At the end of it he said something along the lines of 'I should probably have just moved'.

If you mean Stott Hall Farm in West Yorkshire, between the carriageways of the M62, I'm afraid that is just an urban myth. The roads are separated because the ground conditions were not suitable for the normal layout.
