the next junction north of the Tebay services.

The bloody services should have been off J12, instead we get an incinerator and an electricity cable running 4 miles and down through our town. Road up for 6 months (plus snow time!). They dug up our town to prettify it and closed the high street for a month and disrupted for 3 months, and then came back to finish the job a year later and now we have the town in disarray with single file and the main road closure for a week. Again.

And all that prettifying is now enhanced with a strip of bumpy black down the red-speckled tarmac. And out of town they can't do the seriously bumpy potholes till the diggers have long departed. Just in case.......

And they could have used the electricity generated to solidify the ash, instead of carting it 100 miles to a glassification plant. And there were shenanigans over the placing of the contract. The culprit is not there but the penalty clause is!

Joined up government? Yea, joined by graft!
