Highways England is constructing the new roundabout along the A590 at Cross-a-Moor, south of Ulverston. It is expected to cost around £7 million with partnership funding from Highways England, Cumbria County Council, Cumbria Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) and South Lakeland District Council. Reader Peter Sullivan posted: “I really can’t see how spending any money on this is justified, let alone £7m. It just isn’t needed. A much bigger priority is doing something about the constant, dangerous queue on the A590 outside the Recycling Centre. Not to mention the countless holes, bumps, dips, and general decay of all the town’s roads, which are appalling and which the council does nothing unless someone reports the holes, despite them being visible to any member of Highways inspecting the roads. And even then, they’re poor repairs.”
