From despair to jubilation in 3 months
Storm Desmond caused catastrophic damage to Cumbria’s infrastructure, back in December 2015, including the closure of the A591 – a key route through the central Lake District.
David Pluse, from WSP|PB, project managed the rebuild, on behalf of Highways England. He will talk about the challenges faced in getting the road reopened in time for the spring, and how resilience is now at the forefront of highways design, construction and maintenance.
