M602 motorway

The M602 motorway is a 4-mile-long (6 km) motorway, leading traffic into Salford, Greater Manchester, England, towards Manchester city centre and by-passing the town of Eccles.

This would be an upgraded version of the original plan of the East Lancashire Road, the A580, but would link onto the existing route at Worsley.

It was decided that the Trans-Pennine Motorway be extended to Liverpool too, to provide a cross-country trunk route.

That left a short stump of the original M52 between the M62 and Ordsall, which was initially renumbered M64 and then became the M602.

[citation needed] The southern end of the M62 between Worsley and Stretford became the M63 and later the M60.
