M6 J21A to J23 northbound., 9th February

Fri, 09 Feb 2024 13:53:41 +0000
53.426283 -2.556105

Appalling potholed surface which is dangerous as it could easily throw a vehicle off course in the narrow lanes where you are installing a killer motorway. I imagine that this section will be resurfaced by the end of the current installation but it presents a real and present danger to road users. This is unacceptable. I expect a response to this report.

53.424614 -2.562992

The public footpath / Right Of Way which is bounded along it's northerly flank by the M6/62 Westbound slip round onto the M62 (Croft Interchange) that runs from Spittle Brook in the Eastern-most part and Mill/Delph lane motorway bridge in the Western-most part, is heavily overgrown with brambles, small to medium trees which are blocking the path. The buffer zone between the boundary fence and the motorway metal barrier has dense vegetation ranging from trees to weeds and everything in between. Please could you look into thinning this 'buffer' zone to stop future encroachment onto the Right Of Way.

Dangerous Driving by another motorist, 25th May

Thu, 25 May 2023 16:28:21 +0100
53.437032 -2.578126

Driver of Vehicle LO59 GFA Mercedes Sprinter for a company CU Design, 300 yds prior to the slip road, at approx 15.30 drove into the access road for the road works and continued through the barriered section to exit at Junction 22. Causing a worker to move out of the way rather quickly before he was struck by the van. Unfortunately no CCTV footage from myself, however I'm sure the team on that section have done a report. he stopped in traffic later, I have a photo of the driver that will clearly identify him and his company details off the van. Please do something about this as the teams need to be protected against idiots like this.

Severe Pothole on M6 Northbound - damaged my vehicle, 5th May

Fri, 05 May 2023 23:27:23 +0100
53.437692 -2.579666

There are continuing long-term roadworks on the M6 (seemingly delayed), and a number of potholes. There is one specifically on the M6 Northbound in the middle lane which is not visible , but my car tyre is damaged as a consequence and requires now replacement. Being it is a runflat tyre as well, the cost will be excessive. Please can these repaired ASAP so no further damage occurs. I am looking to claim for the cost of my damaged tyre and replacement from Highways Agency. Thank you for your understanding
