We formed the Aspatria Rural Partnership and decided to prepare this Community Action Plan. It aims to provide a strategic approach and to co-ordinate our actions through the delivery of an evidence-based action plan. This is intentionally a succinct document, which belies the amount of work that went into its preparation. That work is captured in a background issues paper, which sets out the research and consultation that helped us define our objectives and actions. We now want to implement our plan and we welcome your input. If we have missed something that is important to you, then let us know. If you have any suggestions on the actions or if there is anything you can do to help implement them, please do get in touch.

  • A595 Improvement Transport Scheme Development
    A595 Improvement Transport Scheme Development Non-Technical Summary i A595 Improvement – Transport Scheme Development 1/ Introduction 1. Introduction 1.1 Background 1.1.1 Cumbria County Council is undertaking study work to develop a highway improvement scheme for the A595 between Redmain and Mealsgate. The council has appointed engineering consultants Capita to assist with and support the technical work. 1.1.2 This report is a non-technical summary of the scheme development and options appraisal undertaken to date. It presents an outline of the scheme context and underlying evidence base, the scheme’s objectives, and a description and the rationale for the scheme undergoing consultation. 1.2 Previous Studies 1.2.1 The West of M6 Strategic Connectivity Study identified a number of constraints on Cumbria's key highway corridors, including the A595, related to capacity, safety and resilience. Interventions have been developed to remove these constraints and support plans for economic growth in the County. The A595 around Bothel was one of the sections identified that required improvement. 1.2.2 Following this study, a strategic outline business case was developed for the A595/A66 corridor. The business case brought together all the scheme interventions identified on the corridors in the West of M6 Study and prioritised them. The A595 between Redmain and Mealsgate was identified as a prioritised scheme in the business case, and economic appraisal demonstrated the programme as a whole could achieve value for money. 1.3 Existing Situation 1.3.1 The A595 is an essential strategic route for Cumbria, providing access to and from West Cumbria and sites including the Port of Workington, Moorside, Sellafield and Barrow-in- Furness, to the A689 and the M6 and A69 beyond.
