Accident Recovery at the M180's breakdown hotspots

These are the stretches of the M180 where we are called out most often, and where we keep accident recovery resources close at hand:

Junctions 1-2 (Thorne to Belton, Humberhead Levels), the flattest and most exposed section of the M180; crosswinds from the marshland buffet HGVs; fog forms readily on the low-lying drained land; the transition from the M18 to the M180 involves a change in road character that catches drivers off guard

Junctions 3-4 (Scunthorpe area), the convergence of steelworks industrial traffic with M180 through-traffic; heavy loads of steel and raw materials create high HGV density; tyre blowouts from overloaded vehicles are more common here than on other sections

Junction 5A (Brigg/A180 continuation towards Immingham), the transition from M180 motorway to A180 trunk road at the eastern end; vehicles maintaining motorway speed encounter the changed road standards; the proximity of the Humber estuary adds salt air and damp conditions
