Loose chipping and tar, 1st March
The road is full of loose chippings and tar from all the patching up that has been done. The complete road is absolutely disgraceful. Considering we probably pay more council tax than most other areas and we get nothing. I live on the lonning between the Summergrove junction and the farm and that is one of the worst parts on the road. The loose chippings and tar are ruining everything, including our car, my floors in my house (I have to de tar them every 2 weeks) my dogs get clogged up with it, I am having to cut their fur constantly. We don’t have pavements so have no choice but to walk on the road. It really is not acceptable and if it’s not sorted out I will be putting a claim in with the council. When the council have been out to sweep the road in the past they are only doing the edges which is no good, the whole of the road needs cleaned and not just around Summergrove halls either but right through the wood up to Sneakyeat farm. The last time I reported this Cumberland council said it wasn’t their department yet when I look on Copeland councils site there is no where I can report it hence why I am trying with this site again. If you reply to say it isn’t you again then could you please pass my enquiry onto the correct department as I have tried my best but no success. I really am begging now.

Traffic lights timings, 23rd February
The traffic lights aren’t changing soon enough - over the past few weeks traffic has become backed up until the roundabout on hensingham square. Traffic is between 20-30 cars long at any one time. My journey time to work is normally around 6 minutes but due to these traffic lights it’s taking 10-12 minutes. As I am waiting there for around 3 minutes for the lights to change.

Traffic lights program is too slow from B5295 leading onto A595 (hensingham bypass), 21st February
The traffic lights appear to be prioritising the A595 traffic over B5295, even when no vehicles are present on the A595.
This is leading to tailbacks going significantly far up the B5295.
When lights do change over (to allow traffic from B5295 to join the A595), the green light is only on for long enough for 5 vehicles at most to pass through.
This can be further exacerbated by the next traffic lights where Inkerman Terrace joins the A595, as traffic backs fully up and even into the junction (which for some reason isn't a box junction).

A595 southbound, left hand side of the road just as the carriageway starts to climb towards the traffic lights at West Lakes Science Park, 20th February
Large pothole, Cumberland Council have swiftly passed this off as a national highways issue. Pothole is big enough for car wheel to drop down into.
