FIXMYSTREET IN LA8 8PG
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of LA8 8PG:
Dangerous road surface, 26th March
There is a long stretch of broken tarmac on the joint between lanes one and two of the westbound carriageway. It is more than a single pothole and whilst its not such a problem in a car, on a motorcycle it is a much more serious issue with loss of control being a likely possibility. The damage stretches from Levens junction to past the Gilpin Bridge junction. It has been like this for some time and is now getting seriously bad.

Suggested improvement, 4th March
It would be a good improvement to make the left slip road continue onto the a590 westbound without a giveway. The traffic coming round the roundabout is already fed to the 2nd lane and there doesn't seem a need to pause the cars turning left coming from the m6.

Worn and faded give way lines at Brettargh Holt roundabout on joining west bound A590, 19th April
I have seen drivers assuming they have right of way from the slip road at Brettargh Holt roundabout onto the A 590 near side lane, west bound towards Barrow. A local man informed me, incorrectly, that this was now a lead in filter lane for the west bound A590. The give way lines are well worn at this junction and drivers are getting confused.

Road Sign Destroyed, 13th August
Road sign ‘Force Lane’ has been completely destroyed by an articulated lorry reversing out of Force Lane onto the A590 yesterday at approx 1pm . The lorry had accidentally turned down the lane. There is no turning circle for lorries of this size along this rural single track lane. The sign needs to be replaced again but with a bigger sign that can be visible on the A590 at a distance whilst driving on a dual carriageway. The road frequently is mistaken for the A6 by road users and results in vehicles turning down a single track lane with only residents private driveways to turn around in that results in damage to private property.
