How do smart motorways work?<\/h3>\n

The UK\u2019s most hated motorway has been unveiled with almost half of respondents all in agreement.<\/p>\n

British drivers feel London\u2019s M25 is the worst motorway in the country with almost half of those surveyed calling out the busy road.<\/p>\n

The London orbital topped a new Express poll with 47 percent of respondents selecting the road as their least favourite.<\/p>\n

Express reader @Peregrine Falcon said: \u201cI would have said the M25 personally.\u201d<\/p>\n

@Dyanmo David added: \u201cSurely not as bad as the M25 car park.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The M6, which runs from Rugby and near Birmingham, Coventry and Stoke, was the second most hated motorway in the nation.<\/p>\n

The M62, a transpennine motorway connecting Liverpool via Manchester, Bradford and Leeds, was the third worst road with six percent.<\/p>\n

A further six percent also opted for the M1, the UK\u2019s first full-length motorway built back in 1959.<\/p>\n

Four percent of 1,230 polled by Express.co.uk backed the M4, while there were also votes for the M40, M60 and M8.<\/p>\n

Just seven percent of respondents said they didn\u2019t know which route to select.<\/p>\n

The poll comes less than a month after Transport Focus revealed the UK\u2019s least liked motorway in their Strategic Roads User Survey.<\/p>\n

However, the two data sets did not find the same result with the Transport Focus poll branding the M6 the worst in the nation.<\/p>\n

The M6 earned an overall satisfaction score of 66 percent with the majority of concerns surrounding the time it took to complete journeys.<\/p>\n

The M25 was the second worst with a rating of just 67 percent from those taking part in the research.<\/p>\n

The road was called out for journey time and road surface quality while almost a quarter claimed they didn\u2019t feel safe on the roads.<\/p>\n

Express reader Saoutchik explained: \u201cOn the M6, no one can hear you scream.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, some who regularly used the route didn\u2019t see the road as a particular problem.<\/p>\n

Express reader @MichaelMorgan commented: \u201cThe M6 most hated? I use the M6 regularly and seldom have problems driving along it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Transport Focus\u2019 study found that the M5 was the UK\u2019s favourite motorway with a satisfaction result of 82 percent.<\/p>\n

Drivers praised the route’s safety while journey times were also looked upon favourably.<\/p>\n
