No longer part of the A6010, this original RCS is now bypassed. Not sure about the distance to Rochdale though...

The A6010 is for the most part a poor quality road that forms an arc around the east of Manchester. This is Wilbraham Road in Fallowfield and somewhat surprisingly has a 40mph speed limit.
Poor quality 40mph road that makes up Manchester's middle ring road.
