Slightly different from all of the winter themed pictures. It shows the M60 under construction anti-clockwise at junction 23 (Ashton).

Not a Photo, but a painting on which there was a thread in the forums.
It is based on a photo from 1967 showing Mancunian Way�the A57(M) and the surrounding effect of the brutalist architecture that scarred many cities at the time...

It's been a while since we've had a night (or even dusk) shot. Here's one taken over a couple of minutes last month, and blended together from 10 or 20 pictures.
Note that it has thumbnailed poorly - it's better at a reasonable size.

The A57(M) as viewed from below at night taken on a very cold December evening.

A few things on here. All of the 'old' part of the Mancunian Way is complete, but it seams that the 'unfinished' slip is complete and connects with Brook St. Princess Road (A5103) doesn't yet meet it's Mancunian Way Junction, it also seams to have some sort of connector with Moss Lane planned? No Chester Road Flyover (the old Iron one) installed yet ether. Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Apr 04, 2005 by Mediaman_12

The comedians of Mancherster City Council attempt to hide the slip-road that never was by placing a huge M-way sign at where the A57(M) was to slip into Manchester City Centre but due to the one-way system in operation had to be aborted - a classic tale of slip-road tomfoolery.

It's the A6 & A580 before all the GS junctions where added. Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Apr 04, 2005 by Mediaman_12

Two bridges at the southern end of Deansgate. The nearer of the two carries the Metrolink, whist the other carries the railway approaching Deansgate station.

Manchester City Centre. Before the Arndale was built. The A6 comes up Piccadily, along Market St. & St Marys Gate, but Blackfriars St. does not have the heavy outline of a 'main' road, Where to now? Did it multiplex up Deansgate for a while?

The Manchester Museum of Transport, Boyle St, has this excellent collection of pre-Worboys signs on display.

The stretch between Stockport and the M67 can be seen numbered as the M66. It also has an unbuilt spur. Also note the A6144(M) under construction. Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Nov 06, 2005 by DavidBrown

M62 Manchester This map shows a planned M601 heading south into Manchester from between the current M60 J16/J17. Now the M602 numbering makes more sense?????
