Significant Water Hazard - A595 North of Blackbeck Roundabout / Yeorton Brow, 3rd January
At the top of the hill by Blackbeck roundabout (heading towards Whitehaven), on the newly resurfaced bit of road, the standing water is an absolute death trap on both sides of the carriageway! Honestly, it's so bad it's only a matter of time before there is a serious accident. The water was over 2" deep at some points, resulting in substantial aquaplaning for my medium-sized car. I think a motorcyclist would have come off if they encountered it at 40mph, and a heavy vehicle (esp. artic) would also be additionally vulnerable - struggling with control. Drainage (and camber to drainage) requires a comprehensive survey, review and remedial work to recover minimum safety requirements for the highway.

Regular flooding on A595, 12th December
Several times over the past few years this stretch of A549 keeps flooding. Often there are puddles quarter of the way into the road due to no drainage in the bottom of the dip, when it rains heavy the full road floods, the drains have been cleaned several times, most of the time the engineers who respond say they cant do anything. The current drains cant cope with the amount of water and need improved.

Round about or through road?, 12th December
On a daily basis I witness near misses on this roundabout, No road marking explaining which lane to use. This is commonly brought u on Facebook and everyone has their own opinion how to use it.. Please can you confirm if this is classed as a roundabout and which lanes should be used when following the A595 in both directions. Please can some clear markings also be added to the road?

Standing traffic near miss, 12th December
On a few occasions I've witness near misses due to standing traffic on the brow of the hill heading towards Calder Bridge. Is it possible to either improve signage or reduce the speed limit to 40mph.

Brambles and long grass obstructing view, 12th December
When exiting nursey road onto the A595 the brambles and long grass are obstructing the view of oncoming traffic, its almost impossible to spot a motorcyclist and I've witnessed a near miss this week. Years ago these were always cut back to the fence line, I assume the fence line is so far back from the road for this reason.

Severely over grown grass arra, 16th November
Hello I am a resident of Calderbridge and reporting the over grown path way on the A595. The problem area is on a sharp narrow bend and because I use a buggy the path is very narrow that I am having to use part of the wheels on the road. I am unable to use the double buggy on this area. I have been in touch with the council who have advised that this is your responsibility to maintain.

Near misses due to unclear signage and road markings., 26th September
Nobody seems to understand what the Blackbeck roundabout is or which lanes to use etc. I regularly see near misses from both sides of the A595 with people either stopping expecting to give way or using both lanes going northbound. Could the signage be improved and markings on the road to improve safety? Please could I be contacted with an explanation of how to use this roundabout correctly, some people believe it is not a roundabout but a through road?
