The first motorway opened in Britain was the M6 (M=Motorway). It was known as the Preston Bypass. It was opened in 1958.
When it was planned, the Preston Bypass was seen as the first piece of a large network. It was deemed a success and led to the construction of a second motorway, the M1, opened in 1959.
There was no speed limit and no crash barriers and hardly any traffic -- now that's what I call motoring!
The M6 is also Britain's longest motorway and Britain's busiest.
The first section of the UK M1 motorway was opened on 2nd November 1959.
The first section of UK motorway was the Preston By Pass, now part of the M6 motorway, and was opened on 5th December 1958.
