M6 motorway (351 words) |
 | The M6 motorway is a motorway in England, United Kingdom. |
| It is certainly the longest motorway in the country and is often claimed to be the busiest, although the M25 may also lay claim to this dubious distinction, depending on the measurement used. |
| The first part of the motorway, and indeed the motorway in the country, near Preston was opened by then Prime Minister Harold Macmillan on December 5, 1958. |

| Most of it is designated the A58(M), a motorway section of the A58 road, and the rest is the A64(M), part of the A64 road. |
| Although designated as a motorway, the road has no hard shoulders, and has many exits modern planning would consider unworthy of a motorway, including a right-side (fast lane) slip road exit (taking the eastbound A58 off the motorway). |
| The motorway was built around the city centre in three stages in the 1960s and 1970s. |
