4 lanes for M6 and M5 - mark ansell

If there's one action that any government should be taking now, it's to make the M6 south of Preston, 4 lanes for its entirety! (Mike Rutherford didn't mention this in his hit list!) Living in Aberdeen we travel to south coast regularly on hols; it is horrendous anytime of day and anywhere on M6 and M5.
I would gladly pay a toll if guaranteed action on this.

Did I notice on our last visit south that bridge works were being carried out on the M6. Is this for an additional lane? Here's hoping.

Lane discipline, well that's another story!

4 lanes will be fine provided it's not like the 4 lane sections of the M25 - lane 3 full of 65 mile/hr cruisers who won't move over!
