Petition Build a bypass from Sellafield to Barrow in furness
As a very frequent user of the A595 to Barrow in furness like many others I believe the road is inadequate, it is very dangerous and even more so when the weather is bad. Which is extremely often. I believe that it would be in people's best interest to create a much safer road.

Driver to appear in Barrow court after crash on the A595 at Bootle - Sep 2017
These are but a few. I have a whole research file on this.
There are also many many crashes and closures due to weather. The main causes; snow, ice, rain and fog. People need to use these roads daily. It would be much safer to have a bigger more straight road. Think of the lives that can be saved.
