The Highways Agency is advising drivers using motorways in Cheshire and Greater Manchester to be aware that tests on new signal systems will be taking place on motorway slip roads over the next two months.
The signals control the entry of vehicles from slip roads onto main motorway carriageways. They have been installed elsewhere across the region's motorway network but six new sites are currently being tested on the M56, M6 and M62.
Although the new systems at motorway junctions are not yet 'live' drivers will be expected to treat them as active and respond accordingly during the testing period - i.e. to stop when they display red signals. This will help the assessment and testing of the systems.
