Poor condition of lanes west bound for about 1 mile out from jct 7 upto jct 7.

Reported via mobile in the Road surface (NH) category anonymously at 06:59, Friday 28 March 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7350147.

I use the M56 every day. After the smart works were completed there was some night closure road surface works and I assumed this issue would be resolved then but hasn't and it's the worst section. If you drive towards jct 7 from jct 6 (ignore the jct 7 turn off) and stay in the middle it's in such poor condition! The surface is damaged from all the temporary lines, repairs and patching up from the smart motorway works. It's not been re surfaced or re lined like other areas here for example the adjacent section east bound.
