Pointless and dangerous 40 mph restriction, 19th March

Tue, 19 Mar 2024 08:46:01 +0000
54.239892 -2.725903

For the last mile of the South-bound A590 heading from Kendal to the M6 J36, there is a temporary 40 mph speed restriction. I saw this on Sunday and Monday (17/18 March). There are some cones along the road verge but no sign at all of any work in progress or need for reduced speed. Consequently, all traffic is ignoring the restriction and continuing to move at 60-70 mph. Reducing speed to observe the 40 mph limit could itself cause an accident as fast moving lorries could suddenly come across a much slower-moving vehicle, causing sudden braking or swerving.

Litter build up, 2nd January

Tue, 02 Jan 2024 10:31:54 +0000
54.237067 -2.718038

Hi I help clean litter off the roads. It's dangerous and relentless work! Certain places I can't get to. The roundabout and slip roads leading onto the M6 are one of those areas outside of Kendal. Is it possible for the National Highways to try and clean these areas on at least an annual basis? It would make a huge difference. Especially as it is the gateway to one our biggest National Parks. I have been informed by my local authority that this does fall under your responsibility. Kind regards Johnny
