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.

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.

Female Drivers
HI
This glossy magazine was put together after numerous pieces of research highlighted that female motorists are less confident at maintaining their own vehicles and often feel vulnerable when driving alone.
"HI" was produced to offer advice on routine vehicle checks, what to do if you breakdown, how to change a tyre and other useful and practical road safety advice, specifically for female drivers.
The magazine was launched on the front cover of "Eve" magazine in November 2007 where 238,000 copies were distributed. Furthermore, another 3000 were given out at the Clothes Show in December 2007.
