The motorway roundabout junction at Simister is where the M62 and the M66 meet forming what is now the northern tip of the M60 orbital motorway. From the bridge at Simister, lorries and other vehicles can be seen crossing the three level intersection, including these trucks belonging to UK home retail stores Matalan and B&Q.

This was a test composite image for the book 'Around the M60, Manchester's Orbital Motorway' by Matthew Hyde, Aidan O'Rourke and Peter Portland.
