A595

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what plans he has to open a consultation on improvements to the A595 near Grizebeck before the end of the current parliamentary session.

Answer

The A595 in this location is a local road and the responsibility of Cumbria County Council.

Later this year the Department for Transport plans to consult on its plans to establish a Major Road Network, which would include the most important local authority A-Roads. A share of the National Road Fund, funded by Vehicle Excise Duty, will be set aside to fund improvements on this Network, which could include roads such as the A595 at Grizebeck.
