IT appears to have been one of the best kept secrets in Warrington so far with very few cars making the most of it but a new link road between the M62 and Great Sankey is now open.
We put our Top Gear thinking caps on and sent out our photographer to capture the new route that quickly takes motorists from junction eight through to Lingley Mere.
Did you know the new shortcut existed?

(And before you ask, we have just increased the speed of the video to give you a quick glimpse of the new road rather than anyone breaking the speed limit.)
