How traffic on the M60 has moved hour by hour, compared with the same day a week earlier (Saturday 10 October 2026) and with National Highways’ usual speed for each hour. Updated every five minutes.

Speeds are colour-coded the same way as our live M60 speed flow map: 50 mph and over, 30 mph to 49 mph, under 30 mph. The colour shows the speed actually achieved; the usual speed is shown in bold beside it.

How we worked this out. We regularly take National Highways’ live speed data for each stretch of the M60 and keep the average for each hour. These figures cover 24 hours of Saturday 17 October 2026 (we have no readings for Saturday 10 October 2026, so there is no week-earlier line yet). Hours are UK time. A speed shown for the whole road is the average across its stretches, so a short queue may not move it much: the cards point to the slowest stretches.
