Time is running out for people to have their say on a new batch of proposed 20mph speed limit schemes aimed at making roads safer for all.

Westmorland and Furness Council has welcomed the Government’s announcement of funding approval for a major project to dual the A66.

Westmorland and Furness Council have been confirmed as finalists for two national awards, recognising their major project to improve the safety and resilience of the Kirkstone Pass section of the A592.

As a part of a national independent survey, people can share their views on topics from the condition of roads to the quality of cycling routes.

A total of 53 roads have been prepared and permanently patched, ready to be sealed with a surface dressing treatment by August 2025

Resurfacing work will start on sections of the A6 through Shap village on Monday (23 June).

A ‘Community Conversation’ has been launched by Westmorland and Furness Council to gather people’s thoughts on current services in their area.

The scheme will create a dedicated space for people to travel actively between Ramsden Square and the junction of Park Drive.

Thousands of highways and transport improvements will bring smoother journeys to Westmorland and Furness as a part of a £37.7 million programme.

Designed for all ages and abilities, the new infrastructure provides a safe, vehicle-free space for people to travel actively
