HGV Recovery at the M602's breakdown hotspots

These are the stretches of the M602 where we are called out most often, and where we keep HGV recovery resources close at hand:

Junction 1 (M60/M62 Eccles interchange), the merge point where M602 commuter traffic meets the M60 orbital and M62 trans-Pennine flows; one of the busiest motorway junctions in the north-west; overheating from extended queuing is a morning routine

Junction 3 (Regent Road terminus in Salford), the abrupt end of motorway conditions at an urban junction; sudden braking for traffic lights and pedestrian crossings catches drivers at speed; the congested Regent Road junction is the M602's main bottleneck

Junction 2 (Salford Quays/Trafford Park access), the junction serving MediaCityUK, the Trafford Centre, and the surrounding business parks; the volume of traffic turning off for these destinations creates weaving conflicts and sudden speed changes
