On both Northbound and Southbound M6 between junctions 22 - 23 the road surface is becoming dangerous with large craters opening on the central carriageway. Please can you inspect these areas as I am concerned they will soon damage cars and / or cause an accident. Many thanks.

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

M6 Jct 22 to jct 23 north bound mainly lane 2 dangerous road surface, significant pot holes/broken surface. Given this is in an area of major roadworks I’m disappointed to see such poor surface causing motorists to swerve. Lane 1 isn’t brilliant in parts but lane 2 is a disgrace

The potholes are generally along the offside of lane 2 where the original lane division used to be before the roadworks started. This is the position where the offside wheels of most cars are most comfortably positioned in this narrow lane.

Road markings not clear when exiting the roadworks and causes users to incorrectly drive up the green tarmac close to verge then try and merge before roundabout, 6th January

Thu, 06 Jan 2022 11:05:56 +0000
53.438598 -2.582461

It is confusing leaving the M6 SMA roadworks and exiting from Lane 1 northbound up to J22 because we are using the hard shoulder on Lane 1 and then the tarmac is part green colour coded on the exit lane. It is not clear if you are supposed to stay left and go into the green shaded tarmac or stay on the main grey tarmac up to the roundabout. I have always assumed from the markings that the green shaded area is not to be driven on but yesterday during busy but reasonably fast traffic i witnessed two vehicles using the green shaded tarmac on the left which then runs out on them before the roundabout and they had to try and cut back in again a few meters before the roundabout. The vehicle in front of me tooted its horn angrily at these drivers and so i am still assuming that they did not use the exit lane correctly, but it is definitely not clear and could cause an accident. It is perhaps worse because we have all just been using the hard shoulder on the SMA road works section.

Overgrown vegetation and litter., 8th November

53.43948 -2.58452

Whilst the M6 is under development for a smart motorway, It would be beneficial to clear the roundabout at Jct 22 of litter and vegetation that has overgrown. The slip road to Jct 22 north bound is also full of litter. Some road signage is covered over. This issue has been steadily getting worse for months/year.
