The temporary 60mph speed system is basically nonexistent and unenforceable. M602 J1-3 both carriageways, I'm guessing 70% of the 60mph signage has blown over; it has been in this state for many months.

Dead animal on the central reservation, 21st November

Tue, 21 Nov 2023 17:04:16 +0000
53.484649 -2.314969

There’s a dead animal in the central reservation between junction 2 and junction 3 on the M602 towards Manchester/Salford. It is a similar build to a ferret and is reddish in colour. I first noticed it on Thursday, last week, but wasn’t sure until I drove past it again this week. This is the second dead animal I’m reporting in the same part of the motorway in less than a year. I hope it’s nothing sinister but it may be worth noting.
