Junction 18 coming up
Junction 18 coming up
During the 1990s, the M6 sprouted many of these large concrete gantries to ensure adequate warning of junctions for drivers. The previous 1960s signs at the side of the carriageway were frequently invisible behind a continuous line of lorries. This view was taken on an unusually quiet day during the school holidays. For many years, this indicated that home was near at hand after a working day in the south.
