Join of the 2 roads is rising

Reported via mobile in the Road surface (NH) category anonymously at 06:54, Mon 25 September 2023

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5027183.

The a63 is one surface and joins the m62 which is a different surface and is causing a really hard hump which at 70 mph is going to cause damage to smaller vehicles....andnit seems to be getting worse....its particularly bad in the middle lane

  • Thank you for making your report of 25 September 2023 about the carriageway where the M62 and A63 surfaces join. We understand your concerns and appreciate the time you've taken to contact us about this.

    We've attended this location and assessed the issue you've highlighted.
