A £2.5 million scheme to transform a town gateway has been completed.
The traffic lights at Bransty Row junction in Whitehaven have now been switched on, marking the end of Cumbria County Council’s project.
The work has been designed to ease congestion and improve road safety with a clearer road layout for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians.
Councillor Keith Little, the council's cabinet member for highways, said: “This scheme has transformed the gateway to Whitehaven from the north, making it more welcoming and safer for all road users.
“The project supports new investment in the North Shore area and I’m delighted the improvements have now been completed.
