M62 - Your Local History
A lot of finds were uncovered during the archaeological evaluation carried out for the M62 Junction 6 Improvement scheme so we thought it would be nice to provide an interactive website so you can see what we found.

Quick Links
Don't Cross or Walk Along Motorways
The Highways Agency aims to make more people aware of the dangers of walking or crossing our motorway. We have launched a poster and radio campaign aimed at 16-25yr olds. Hopefully with our hard hitting posters, our message will come across.

Events
Obviously it is critical that the travelling public can understand the new signs. The Highways Agency has been asking the travelling public for their views on the new signs.
Come and see the new sign for yourself, and complete a questionnaire. Here are some of the events that the Highways Agency will be attending in 2003:
- Civils 2004 - at NEC Birmingham 27-29 April
- International Motor Show - at NEC Birmingham May 2004
- Traffex - April 2005
If you can't make it to one of these events - you can still complete a questionnaire on the messages the sign can display. Remember your view counts - the Highways Agency's aim is to provide better information for drivers and increase safety on England's motorway and trunk road network.
