Residents living along the A595 have renewed calls for action on speeding following a multi-agency meeting. The road, which runs through Cumbria, has been the subject of long-standing concerns about vehicle speeds and road safety.
The meeting brought together local authorities, police, and community representatives to discuss the issue. However, as of 19 September 2026, no new enforcement measures or speed limit changes have been officially announced.
Campaigners argue that the current speed limit is frequently ignored and that stronger measures are needed to protect pedestrians and cyclists. Similar concerns have been raised in other parts of the UK where rural roads experience high traffic volumes.
Further details from the meeting have not been made public. Residents are expected to continue pressing for concrete action, including potential speed cameras or reduced limits.
