It was also numbered retrospectively - it didnโ€™t become the M60 until all the road already existed and the final section was about to be opened. All itโ€™s signs and markerposts were reworked to suit its completion in about 1998.

Gone a little bit retro today and put back in marker posts on 1st and 2nd fairways , we will see how these are received and if favourable and they don't get vandalised we will put them on other blind holes too #golf #golfer #markerposts #sport #retro

datum & the markerposts came from that. Or where the same designer dud several sections, such as on the A1, they used chainages already allocated from previous schemes.

You'd think roadside markerposts started at zero and counted up from there. But nothing on the road network is ever that simple! Join us for a deep dive into the oddly complex world of markerpost numbering. roads.org.uk/blog/looking-ouโ€ฆ

More general views of this fascinating bit of motorway, and a rather quiet moment between Jct 3 & 4 (felt a bit odd how quiet the links A580 links were, considering the markerposts seem to suggest they seem to be the M61's mainline) @ShowMeASignBryn @RoadsignReport1 @roads_uk

Great advice from our motorway officer as always !! Marker posts enable @WYP_CCC to tell us exactly where you are. Meaning we can give our officers your exact location straight away and alert highways who can set correct signs to assist. #Motorwayadvice #Saftey #Markerposts

Some advice on marker posts and boards if you breakdown or are involved in an incident and you don't know which junction you have passed. Remember A carriageway, junction numbers and marker post numbers increase. B carriageway.. junction numbers and marker post numbers decrease.
