Manchester Outer Ring Road
Stockport to Stockport
The M60 Manchester Outer Ring Road is a trundling loop of more than thirty miles that forms the hub of the dense motorway network serving Lancashire, and includes - by some measures at least - the busiest section of motorway in the country.
The UK's widest motorway is not where you might expect to find it — in fact, it's on the unassuming M61 near Manchester. This gallery offers an overhead view of one of the UK's most unique and spacious interchanges.
An introduction to what I write, and why I write it, and where my strange new road sign simulator fits in to all this.
It was specially designed never to be noticed. And now it's disappearing, nobody has noticed its absence. It's London's own bespoke street light.
The wait is over! The full map of the Ringways, London’s unbuilt urban motorway network, is now online. Not even the system's planners had anything like this.
The UK's first four-level interchange opened in 1966. Relive some of the wonder and excitement of this icon of the motorway era with the book published to mark its completion.
