CONCERN over 'no right turn' on the A590 at Newby Bridge has been cleared up by police.

A police spokesman said: "There have been several reports about the ‘no right turn’ from the Lakeside/Hawkshead road onto the A590 at Newby Bridge. This was installed several months ago and has been modified recently.

"This right turn ban was implemented as a safety measure for all road users as the manoeuvre is hazardous, especially at busy times. The ban is being enforced by police and contravening it could result in a £50 fine."
