The North West region includes the major cities of Manchester, Liverpool, Blackpool and Carlisle, as well large areas of unspoilt countryside in the UK. A land of superlatives, the Lake District boasts both the highest mountain (Scafell Pike) and the largest lake in England (Lake Windermere); Lakeland Fells in Cumbria is the wettest place in England, and Cross Fell in the Pennines the coldest. As such, drivers in the North West need to be prepared for all manner of driving conditions and issues, particularly during the winter months.
Flooding is increasingly a problem in the North West, with parts of Lancashire and Cumbria particularly badly affected through the Winter and early Spring. If you have to drive through a flood, slow right down, use your lowest gear and keep the engine revs high, and remember to apply the brakes swiftly afterwards to expel any remaining water.
The North West’s ‘A’ road network carries the highest risk of all local authority ‘A’ roads in the country. The UK’s single highest risk road remains the A537 between Macclesfield and Buxton, a notorious stretch of winding single carriageway featuring severe bends and steep drops, known locally as the ‘Cat and Fiddle’.
North West traffic blackspots include the Kingsway Tunnel Approach, Wallasey, Merseyside, where drivers can clock up to 90 hours of jams a year. The area also contains the M60, M6 and M62, which are among the UK’s five busiest motorways.
