When coming out of Limepots Road and trying to turn right or even left visibility is completely obscured by a fence belonging to Riverside , Crosthwaite Road, Keswick . This is far worse than the obstruction caused by the fence and shed at Fellview Ashtree Avenue which has been in all the newspapers. It affects more traffic on a very busy highway and numerous accidents have already been caused by it.

Appalling event behaviour on A66, 18th June
I would like to raise serious safety (and highways) concerns about The Lakesman triathlon that is taking place today in the Northern Lakes area (from Keswick) the behavour of the competitors on the bikes is shocking (weaving in and out of both inside and outside of traffic on the A66, blocking lanes, throwing litter on to the side of the highway, non police/highways staff ‘directing’ traffic on the A66, including bringing carriageways to a complete stop to allow cyclists to move about/get drinks/food/fluid etc (this is on top of the fact that the mere presence of the race on a trunk road is causing huge tailbacks, is shocking. it has just taken me 24 mins from the Portinscale Junction to the Crosthwaite Roadabout at Keswick due to this event. How has this been given consent? Were you consulted consulted? What guidance was the event provided with? Please log this as a formal complaint against the race/its behaviour/its shocking attitude to roadsafety etc.

Solid white line replaced with short dashed lines, 20th June
I am surprised you have 'fixed' the worn out solid line by short dashed lines. I assume dashes were originally replaced by a solid white line some time ago, to prevent overtaking, as a safety precaution.
I think this may cause serious accidents.

Solid white line worn out, 7th February
The solid white line stopping westbound traffic overtaking is worn out so looks like a dashed line. This could cause serious problems as this is a 3 lane section with 2 lanes for eastbound. I reported this months ago to Cumbria Council but they now tell me its your responsibility.

I'm writing about the road not being safe from overtaking., 19th December
On the A66 from the Keswick roundabout to Penrith - before reaching the bridge immediately after the roundabout there is a dual carriageway and a single carriageway on the opposite side. On two occasions I have seen a car crossing over from the single carriageway to the dual carriageway (facing on coming cars at 60MPH ) with them being on the wrong side of the road, as we overtake. This time it was a very close call making a dangerous move involving a number of cars swerving to avoid it. Please could I report this to the right department, I would like to see a more physical barrier in place to stop this dangerous driving. Many thanks,
