What the petition asks
How many more unnecessary deaths have to happen before Cumbria County Council and the Government take action and deliver the infrastructure we need.
It's long over due that Cumbria gets the infrastructure it needs to cope with the amount of traffic in the county.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. This is the responsibility of Cumbria County Council.
