Google maps link deleted by "John" on 01 January 2012 restored, this is a useful image of what has been described in over 100 words, and needs to be inserted as an external link due to the fact that Google imagery is copyright and therefore cannot be inserted as a picture. Thanks for all your good work tidying up the copy in this and other motorway articles, but if deleting someone's contribution outright it would be good to know the reason why on the talk section rather than just finding it gone and having to search the edit history. My opinion is that a direct link is more user-friendly, however if the consensus is that a Google Maps link is not appropriate then I would be happy for it to be replaced by long/lat coordinates so that any map engine can be used.

----North /South issue Worsley/Preston. At 1832 BST on 28/5/12 Worsley shown as north terminus and Preston as south. Clearly wrong.
