The M62 contains the highest point on the motorway network where it crosses Saddleworth Moor. The actual highest point is the middle of the bridge across the A672 at junction 22, which rises to 1442ft above sea level.

The very highest point is the "M62 Summit" (as signposted in both directions at the location), well over 350m above sea level. The exact point is the overbridge across the A672 at junction 22, in the wilds of Saddleworth Moor.
350 meters is 1,148.294 feet.

Have read your other replies and find it most amusing that although most are stating they read the details from signs they vary from 144ft to 350mtrs.
Trust these motorists understand what a STOP sign indicates!!
Sorry I can't answer your question as I am not familiar with the area, just read it to be nozy!!
