The vehicle was stopped in the area of the exit for Shaw, according to a post on social media by GMP Traffic this week. The reason for the stoppage was an abnormal load for which there was no movement order, a document which is needed in advance of transportation. Vehicle stopped today by #GMPCVU, M62 junction 21. The incident is not a first for GMP Traffic in recent weeks on this section of the motorway. A week earlier, a truck was stopped with an abnormal load at the exit for Saddleworth.
