53.435653 -2.492205

Huge long pot hole on lane two after you get on the m62 at birchwood and go towards Manchester. It says things have already been reported but the dates are December and July 2023. This is a risk and could burst a tyre. Lane 2 has had loads of potholes for a while but it has got worse because they’ve never been fixed

Uneven Surface, 17th July

53.433813 -2.514735

How long do we need to put up with driving on what can only be described as a roller coaster. I appreciate there’s signs saying uneven surface but for gods sake it’s abysmal. When are you going to address this? It’s been like this for years.

Sliproad would benefit from road markings, 5th June

Mon, 05 Jun 2023 11:26:42 +0100
53.435276 -2.501667

The Eastbound sliproad at Junction 11 on the M62 is a single lane but splits into two lanes towards the roundabout. There is no left turn so effectively both lanes can be used to go right off the roundabout at the end of the sliproad. However, very few people use the left lane which increases the risk of tailbacks onto the motorway creating a hazardous situation. I think it would help improve the flow of traffic off the sliproad and reduce the risk of a serious accident if both lanes had road markings to show that both lanes can be used to turn right on the roundabout.

Faulty speed camera, 19th May

Fri, 19 May 2023 13:50:52 +0100
53.433634 -2.515901

Friday 19th May 09:20am (estimate) I was travelling west bound on m62 between junction 11 and 10. The speed limit was lowered to 50 due to a vehicle obstructing the road, on passing junction 11 the vehicle was in the refuge area being assisted by police/traffic/motorway support. As I travelled towards the location of the speed camera the over head gantry speed changed from 50 to national speed limit sign. On accelerating I was probably travelling around high 50s/60ish as I went through the camera and it flashed a number of times even though the sign had just been changed to NSL

HGVs parking on the roundabout, 30th April

Sun, 30 Apr 2023 12:29:21 +0100
53.435116 -2.501045

HGVs are regularly parking on the roundabout footpath. This not only poses problems for pedestrians but also prevents drivers leaving the M62 from seeing moving traffic on the roundabout. This has been happening for a number of months but is getting worse.

Thu, 20 Apr 2023 15:26:20 +0100
53.433934 -2.511888

Motorway between jnc 11 and jnc 10 of the m62 westbound, is 50mph up to the over head gantry sign where it is reduced to 40mph just passed the westbound camera, Innocent people are getting caught in a 50mph zone doing 49mph by the speed camera yet they havent reached the gantry where it then starts 40mph, this has happened to myself and lots of other people As they are still in a 50mph zone as its not yet reduced to 40mph. What is happening - why is this happening?

Speed camera approaching junction 10 on the M62, West bound wrongfully flashed me at approximately 06:16 on 05/04/23. I was travelling at 70mph, the current speed limit for the motorway at the time due to no other speed being stated on the overhead gantry.

Dangerous fencing, 28th November

Mon, 28 Nov 2022 07:12:53 +0000
53.43465 -2.51028

The fencing at the side of the motorway is not secure enough. I was involved in a serious collision yesterday on the motorway as two dogs ran from the well known dog walking site at birchwood onto the motorway. This isn’t the first time this has happened and the fencing is still not keeping dogs off the motorway. Please can someone look at the fencing to ensure dogs are not able to get through before a death is reported. Thanks Helen

This whole section in all 3 lanes from Jct 11 to 10 on the M62 westbound is almost undrivable. Its like driving over sleeping police men at 70 mph. Has this not been reported before and if so is there a plan to rectify the surface?
