Temporary traffic lights, 3rd January
Work being carried out until 15/01/24. Today I needed to drive from Ulverston and was held up for one hour twenty minutes due to the lights. The frustration was that when I got to the lights the traffic tailback coming in the opposite direction was only eight cars long! This is very poor traffic management and only adds to the frustration and is a total imbalance. Can this be resolved by better monitoring of traffic while this work is on?

Temporary traffic lights., 7th December
The road is insured by traffic lights. The busiest part coming into Cumbria and you have allowed traffic lights there. Why is this not being done through the night like it was putting in average speed cameras. This is causing massive delays in the area for people getting to and from work.

Road flooding, 14th November
Heavy rain is causing the road to flood at an alarming rate this morning. Located on the Finsthwaite road between the English Heritage Bobbin Mill and Fern Cottage garage. We suspect the culvert under the road is blocked. This is also causing gardens to flood and threatening to flood a garage. There is a manhole cover allowing access to the culvert.
Report on FixMyStreet
Manhole cover keeps opening up on pavement and causing hazard for pedestrians., 8th August
Manhole cover keeps opening up creating a hole and hazard to pedestrians.

Overgrown hedge, 31st July
Please can I ask you to cut the hedge to the south of Newby Bridge Service Station. It is a very dangerous situation as cars approaching the garage from the south, travelling at up to 60mph, do not have a clear view of traffic exiting the garage. There have been several accidents, which necessitated the closure of the road, causing delays and frustration, not to mention the cost of emergency services time. It is an easily solvable problem; the hedge needs to be trimmed back please.

Temporary traffic lights causing long delays, 13th December
Today it took me 30 minutes to travel from Haverthwaite to Newby Bridge because of long tailbacks at the temporary traffic lights. The area of 'roadworks' was tiny. The inconvenience caused to hundreds of people, and the cost to business should have meant this was approved for night time only

Still an issue with very noisy traffic driving down the deep ruts/potholes on the carriageway near the central markings from the roundabout joining the a590/592 towards Barrow. Tarmac is breaking up and together with the dangerous surface for small wheels/continual noise from lorries crashing down the final hole, it’s leaving debris in the central reservation.
The work completed was to the roundabout and in no way connected to the pothole issue after the roundabout reported.
