Long continuous run of potholes, 11th February

Sun, 11 Feb 2024 09:44:26 +0000
53.435781 -2.490874

A large stretch on the east bound side, mainly the third lane, is affected. It looks like the process used to remove temporary white lane markings has caused very deep ridges in the motorway surface. Some areas are extremely difficult to drive on, causing drivers to move to other lanes. The damage is getting progressively worse so needs addressing asap to avoid damage to cars and potential accidents.

Due to increased HGV & bus traffic along New Lane & Cross Lane, Croft, Warrington, This has led to numerous pot holes and broken road edges of differing sizes. The reason for this traffic, is the road between Croft and Culcheth has been closed for works etc. The traffic is therefore diverted though Croft village.

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

Entire road section just prior to J11 on westbound M62 appears to be very bumpy and uneven as if it has subsided. Been like this for considerable amount of time and many vehicles are caught be surprise by the poor quality. Disappointing given recent this motorway was recently upgraded and potential for an accident.

At the peak of one of the bumps, small pothole opening up, lane 2, at the peak of the biggest hump. I remember a trailer becoming unhitched from a vehicle at a bump at this location several years ago. You ended up resurfacing the whole stretch of motorway for miles. Time to consider when to schedule this work again?

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 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.
