54.598846 -3.136252

Cars hitting the hole are sending sprays of muddy water over the wall, window and door of the property. This is a rental property and guests are not impressed by the mess. I’m sure many cars will have experienced problems given the size of the hole. This hole needs to be fixed now .

Collapsing manhole in road outside Thornriggs, 7th November

Tue, 07 Nov 2023 17:19:21 +0000
54.600342 -3.159187

For many months now, we have been subject to appalling levels of noise - a hammering sound that is more than audible inside the double glazed house. The manhole supporting structure is subsiding and the manhole cover hammers it loudly every time a vehicle passes by on the carriageway opposite Thornriggs. I have placed the map pin as accurately as I can. The hammering is now of such a level that I suggest the manhole cover will soon break or the underlying structure will fail.

54.606667 -3.161328

I would like to raise serious safety (and highways) concerns about The Lakesman triathlon that is taking place today in the Northern Lakes area (from Keswick) the behavour of the competitors on the bikes is shocking (weaving in and out of both inside and outside of traffic on the A66, blocking lanes, throwing litter on to the side of the highway, non police/highways staff ‘directing’ traffic on the A66, including bringing carriageways to a complete stop to allow cyclists to move about/get drinks/food/fluid etc (this is on top of the fact that the mere presence of the race on a trunk road is causing huge tailbacks, is shocking. it has just taken me 24 mins from the Portinscale Junction to the Crosthwaite Roadabout at Keswick due to this event. How has this been given consent? Were you consulted consulted? What guidance was the event provided with? Please log this as a formal complaint against the race/its behaviour/its shocking attitude to roadsafety etc.

A small hole has appeared today 10th June 23. The hole is approx 200mm in diameter but a larger sunken area around the hole itself suggests more to fall away when cars drive over. I can look into the hole and see a void under the road. I have taken a photo which I can send.
