My grandparents live at (REDACTED) where the Langrigg road meets the A66. I am appalled by the way in which the consultation process has been managed. It has been both confusing and distressing for my elderly grandparents, for example plans were only produced right at the end of the first meeting. Moreover, the final version of the plan includes an entirely new feature right next to their house, a hugely wide spur from the sliproad (almost as wide at its mouth as a dual carriageway), which was not on previous plans (e.g. those from March 2022). It is still unclear what this feature even is. This feels like my grandparents’ historic home in the area is being erased by diktat. For such a huge road building scheme that will interfere with so many people's lives I am shocked that procedures have been of such poor standard.
