A blowout at 70mph is the worst place to lose a tyre. These are the stretches we cover, 24 hours a day, from the workshop on Fairfield Street.
Regent Road to the Ardwick interchange
The elevated section runs a few hundred yards from the workshop door. There is nowhere safe to stop on it, which is exactly why a blowout there needs someone close by.
J1 Stockport round to J18 Simister Island
The whole ring sits inside our patch. J17 to J24 — Prestwich, Middleton, Failsworth, Ashton and Denton — are the closest stretches to Fairfield Street.
J1 Eccles to J3 Regent Road
Two miles from the workshop at its city end. Narrow hard shoulders and heavy commuter traffic make it a frequent callout.
J1 Denton to J4 Mottram
The Woodhead and Snake Pass feeder. Straight run out on the A57 from us.
J12 Eccles to J20 Rochdale
The northern edge of the patch, reached via the M60 or the A580.
J1 Sale to J6 Airport
The airport corridor. A lot of our airport work is people who find a flat in a long-stay car park and need it sorted before or after a flight.
Salford through Swinton and Worsley
Fast dual carriageway west out of the city with long gaps between lay-bys.
