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.

Knowledge Compendium
2009-11 Knowledge Programme
Our Knowledge Programme for 2009-11 consists of 16 Portfolios. These have been developed to meet the particular knowledge needs of the Agency. Each portfolio has produced a purpose and outcome statement. The portfolio purpose is a statement of intent expressing what the portfolio is striving to achieve.
The Output/Outcome statement set out what each portfolio aims to have achieved within the short term (0-2 years), medium term (2-4 years) and long term (4-15 years). All of the Portfolio Purpose and Output/Outcome statements have been agreed by the Research Strategy Group (RStG) and the Knowledge Programme Group.
